i7 4790K Hyperthreading?

[Croum]

On DXTORY (A screen recorder for gamers) there is an option that says 'Processing Threads', you have to put the amount of cores your computer has (pretty self-explanatory), a review I saw said the 4790K has hyper-threading, so the 4 cores it actually has turns into 8 logical cores that helps with multi tasking, should I put 4 or 8 cores?

A YouTuber has a hyper-threading 4 core CPU and they put 8 cores, I just wanted LTT Forum's tech tips and know how to come to the rescue

The OS can't differentiate between simulated and real cores. For software purposes, the i7-4790k has 8 cores even though there are only 4 real physical cores.

4 cores 8 threads - put in the amount of threads as requested

Just put 8, not that it will make much difference.

yes, it makes a huge difference in how it looks and if you input the wrong amount then DXTORY crashed and can't make .avi files

cinematic movie - all cutscenes and story parts. Watch the SC2 Trilogy movie - it's around 15 hours
