Comment:

If I disable Hyper Threading in bios I believe that it would lessen multitasking ability but would it provide more processing power to a single program if I didn't do alot of multitasking?

Thanks TMP-Man. That's some serious info. My take on it is, regardless of whether using single application or multi, HT uses all resources available makng it more efficient.
Please correct me if I didn't absorb all that properly.
