Can someone explain the hyperthreading settings in cmos (the 4x,5x, etc.)?

Someone once said admitting you don't know something is the first step on the road to knowledge....or something like that 
Can someone explain the hyperthreading setting in the CMOS Setup - mine is set to 5x, which I think is correct for my cpu - Venice 3500+, but I don't really know what it does.  What does that setting affect?  I think it was 4x by default, until I loaded optimal settings, and it went to 5x.....

HT = Hyper Transport
Q: What is HyperTransport™ technology?
A: HyperTransport™ technology is a new high speed, high performance point-to-point link for interconnecting integrated circuits on a motherboard. It can be significantly faster than a PCI bus for an equivalent number of pins. HyperTransport was previously codenamed Lightning Data Transport, or LDT. HyperTransport technology was invented by AMD and perfected with the help of several partners throughout the industry. It is primarily targeted for the IT and Telecomm industries, but any application where high speed, low latency and scalability is necessary can potentially take advantage of HyperTransport technology. HyperTransport technology was invented in order to unleash the tremendous power of the AMD microprocessors. HyperTransport is planned to bring the computation experience to a  new level.
Hyperthreading Technology used by Intel.

  • HT5463 In my opinion, when the Silence setting is "only when the device is locked", it contradicts the settings you set above, like Manual. Can someone explain how these settings work together?

    Can someone explain how these settings work together? Manual seams to contraduct the SILENCE setting at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb page. It's very confusing.

    You should have seen information in the support document that you linked from. It used to be with the first version of Do Not Disturb that it would only function when the device was locked. That changed with iOS 7, and not it can be active all of the time. With it on Manual, it is on, but if you have the device "awake" that you can still receive calls/texts, etc. Sort of like you have the phone awake, so it isn't a problem for you to receive things. If you set the settings for Always, this means you can be doing things on the phone and not be disturbed by anything else. Does that make sense?

  • Can someone explain how data is fed to the usage details screen in My Verizon?

    Can someone explain to me how I can view my data usage for a past date today and when I look at the same date a few days from now there will be additional data. Customer support were adamant that the data usage details come directly from my device so I commented that my device must be saving usage and sending it to Verizon arbitrarily to which I was met with silence on the line.
    Here's an example - on 4/1 I checked my data usage details for the date of 3/21 and it looked like this:
    03/21/12
    08:43:00 PM
    0.02518
    03/21/12
    09:17:00 AM
    0.01475
    03/21/12
    07:20:00 AM
    0.01730
    then on 4/7 when I checked my data usage details for the date 3/21 it looked like this:
    03/21/12
    11:45:00 PM
    1.15382

    The red rows have been added between 4/1 & 4/7, but where did they come from? This is just one example, it's happening all over my bill and Verizon cannot justify the anomaly and certainly won't consider removing the $40 in overage charges I have this month. Which brings up another question, why doesn't Verizon offer more than 10GB for the mifi? If I want to use more data and am willing to pay for it, I have to go to another provider?

    Hi kellieh,
    When you had your data overage (and the additional spurious charges), how did Verizon respond to you?
    I have just reported a 2x discrepancy between individual device data usage (.89 GB total) and the reported 1.5 GB for my account.  They claim it will take 72 hours to get back to me after they research the problem.
    What avenues did you pursue to make contact?
    I caled 611, then emailed tech support, then sent a private message to Verizon Wireless support.

  • Can someone explain why one code works and the other one doesn't?

    Hi,
    I have been doing a little work with XML today and I wrote the following code which did not function properly. In short, it was as if there were elements in the NodeList that disappeared after the initial call to NodeList.getElementsByTagName("span"); The code completely drops through the for loop when I make a call to getTextContent, even though it is not a controlling variable and it does not throw an exception! I'm befuddled. The second portion of code works. For what it is worth, tidy is the HTML cleaner that's been ported to java (JTidy) and parseDOM(InputStream, OutputStream) is supposed to return a Document, which it does! So why I have to call a DocumentBuilderFactory and then get a DocumentBuilder is beyond me. If I don't call Node.getTextContent() the list is processed properly and calls to toString() indicate that the class nodes are in the list! Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you Dr but the following is true:
    I placed this code in the for loop before I posted the question :
    for (int i = 0; i < numSpanTags; i++) { // Loop falls through here!
          System.out.println("Span tag (" + i + ") = " + spanTags.item(i));
    }And I receive 29 (The correct number) of non-null references to objects (Node objects) in the NodeList.
    When I replace the exact same for loop with this code :
    for (int i = 0; i < numSpanTags; i++) { // Loop falls through here!
          System.out.println("Span tag (" + i + ") = " + spanTags.item(i).getTextContent());
    }Nothing prints. This discussion has never been about "clever means to suppress exceptions" it has been precisely about why a loop that has the
    exact same references, exact same indices prints one time and doesn't print the other and does not throw an exception. If you can answer
    that question then I am interested. I am not interested in pursuing avenues that are incorrect, not understood and most importantly shot from the hip without much thought.

  • Can someone explain how "Hybrid Power" works on the GT70?

    I have had my GT70 20C for a couple months now and have yet to see Hybrid Power working once. I have been playing games that are clearly taxing my system to the max (SC Blacklist and Rome 2) but the Hybrid Power monitor always says "OFF".
    Am i missing something obvious? I've tried searching the forums and Internet and it seems others are having the same issue, but i'm having trouble tracking down an answer.
    It is my understanding that Hybrid Power only kicks in when it needs too, but it doesn't seem to be doing that at all.
    Is there a way to force it on?
    Can anyone shed some light on how this feature is supposed to work?
    cheers,
    -deluxxe

    same question same computer. Hybrid power is a application but it already runs hidden on your laptop. I always play on my laptop with the charger connected. never on battery. I get about 40-80 frames on ultra on bf3 without the AA or Sync. One day I forgot to check if the outlet was on, and I noticed that my laptop was "struggling" to run the same setting I always run. I quickly checked if I was in "gaming" mode for the G settings and the windows 8 battery settings. I was and started getting worried that something happened to my laptops GPU. I started checking what was running on task manager, using cc cleaner to see and new start-up programs running, checked to see if the disk was in use or if that automatic maintenance was occurring since I have everything always running smooth. nothing was running expect the normal. I then realized that I was running on battery. I remembered that this hybrid energy thing only worked on if you have it plugged in and charging because somewhere I read said that the battery wouldn't be able to "Boost" the gpu or overclock or whatever they want to call it. Running on battery wont boost the gpu because theres not enough watts going in. While charging it will boost the gpu. im not sure wether this is the case that it does overclock the gpu because it clearly says cpu on the hybrid application. And once you go on gaming mode the gigherts gets locked to 3.3 on the cpu speed. its all confusing to me and im still trying to figure it out but all I know for sure is that you will gain a very big boost on ur speed or performance on ur gpu when you have it connected to the charger and charging. I tested it out by unplugging and pluging while play minecraft with a shaders mod(which really takes up a lot of GPU) and bf3 and arma. and yes, when on battery u have to lower ur settings to getting decent frames, while charging or plugged in you get to pretty much maximize your settings. I went from 60 frames on arma3 to 20-30 frames on battery. how sad that you must always be connected to get that good boost and fps. im not sure wether this is a good since only msi does this and it really its overclocking your gpu, or if 770m is always runs that good and msi just saves you battery when gaming on battery. im not sure but if it really is helping out my gaming then that hybrid power is really good becausae that boost in frames is like a never go back type of thing. always game with turbo fan on and plugged in and charging

  • Can someone explain what Apple did to remedy the battery life in version 1?

    My original post got deleted...i guess it violated the TOS for "ranting" and "speculation".
    Yes, the 3g iPhone is an amazing piece of technology with MANY features....but I simply cannot use them and expect it to be a dependable functional telephone at the same time. For years, I have had phones that remain on standby possibly for days, make lots of calls, do lots of texting, browse the net...etc...you get the point.
    I purchased the iphone for the push feature, the 3G feature, the wifi feature and the ability to use it as a telephone ......dependably. I work on-call and need to have a phone on at all times day or night. I charge my phones overnight but still have NEVER had a phone lose a charge as quickly as the iPhone does.
    Apple's solution right now is to turn off all the features that make the phone so attractive in the first place.
    I suspect that I am like a lot of others in that I did not buy this PHONE (yes, it is a phone after all and should have adequate battery life to serve as a phone) to selectively and actively take the time in between calling, browsing, etc. to remember to turn wifi on and off, turn my 3G network on and off and then manually push email. This kind of defeats the purpose.
    Is there something Apple can do to remedy this situation via software updates or are some of has hoping for a pipe dream that simply will/cannot happen? I know with the first iPhone there were updates that dealt with battery life. Does anybody know what the formaer updates did physically? I hope something can be done with the 3g version, because right now it is not usable and may need to be returned.
    Any software/hardware engineer types out there who can advise if this is indeed a fixable thing or should I return the phone? I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to keep this thing, but as it is now, it is totally not usable for me.
    Thanks for reading. . . .hope there is a solution!
    (hope this isn't "too speculative" to be tossed again for violating the TOS)

    I suspect this is your first 3G phone and if so, this is a common problem with all 3G phones and a big complaint. Other 3G phones have a swappable battery which having is a requirement. Since the iPhone does not have a swappable battery, an extra wall charger or keeping the wall charger handy is required. Or having a computer nearby with a USB port along with having a vehicle charger.
    If you aren't interested in turning off available features to conserve battery when needed or wanted, and you use your iPhone regulary for web and email account access via 3G, the battery won't last the day - which is the same for any 3G smart phone. With no swappable battery, if the other alternatives are not acceptable, you should return it.

  • Can someone explain me well when the infopackage use batch or dialog?

    Hi Gurus,
    can someone explain me well when the infopackage use batch or dialog?

    Hi ,
    first of of in Bi_btch job nothin comes in the log .. but if you use PSa and then into data target then it willl definatly create background jobs .. but i feel it doesnt relate to the concept you are taking about ..
    if you us e a sepeate update from PSA step the it will create backgroung jobs ..of  king bi_btch and if you push the packets maually then it will create jobs like bi_book .. thats the diff ..
    The initialization and execution of an InfoPackage is implemented as a process type in the process chain maintenance. The Start Later in Batch setting is hidden if the InfoPackage is used in a process chain. This is because the start of the request is determined by the process chain itself.
    If you do not use the InfoPackage in the process chain maintenance and you want to process the data request in the background, select the radio button Start Later in Batch and define the required start time. If start times already exist for this data request, this is indicated with a  next to the Scheduling Options pushbutton. You can change the start time using Settings Options. You can also enter an end date for the data request with a background job.
    If you schedule an InfoPackage in the batch later, the background request job runs until all data is updated in BW. This is displayed with a corresponding indicator in the Schedule tab page.  The load process remains active until the data is updated.
    For example, this gives external scheduling tools the option of monitoring the request job. The job then also runs with a request from an SAP source system as long as the source system has sent the data to the BW system and posted it or until the monitor sets the request to red. In the job log, a success or error message is displayed according to whether the request was posted successfully or not.
    regards,
    shikha

  • Can someone explain why the Secure Easy Setup light on a...

    Can someone explain why the Secure Easy Setup light on a WRT54G would change from a steady green to steady orange after firmware upgrade?  Everything is connecting properly, and I see no change in performance of network other than light change described.   Thanks. 

    The way I understand the Secure Easy Setup button is this.
    It will be orange when the router is in normal operation mode. The light turns green when you press the Cisco Systems button (that is orange normally) so that the router will search for the web device you are trying to connect to the router. If you want to disable this feature all together go into your router settings page at 192.168.1.1
    Go to the Wireless tab, and then the Advanced Wireless Settings sub-heading, once in there look for the option SecureEasysetup and simply set it to disable (enabled is default) then click the save now and apply the settings. The light should be out now meaning you don't have the Secure Setup feature enabled.
    It is just a personal choice to have it on or off, it should not affect router or internet performance unless you hit the button trying to connect a device to the network.

  • Please can someone explain how to delete email addresses?  I have people who when I type in their name it comes up with the correct email address but then when you hit return to confirm it promptly changes the name to someone else (always the same someone

    Please can someone explain how to delete and email address that when typed in brings up one name but when you hit return to confirm it jumps to another name.  I can't find them in my contacts list but they do come up when you type the first few letters of a name.
    EG If I type xyz and the name of the person comes up, when I press return to confirm that's the one I want then it jumps to [email protected],  always the same def address.
    I can't fathom it out.
    Thanks
    Terri

    Try this:
    Start a new email.  In the To address bar, type in xyz like you normally do, press return to confim, and when the address you want to remove shows up in the address bar, move your cursor over the address you want to delete.
    A small triangle next to the name will show up.  click on it, a drop down menu will open, click Remove from Previous Recipients List.  Then do the drop down menu again and Remove Address.
    Good luck.

  • CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN ME THE DISPLAY QUALITY

    I have just purchased a new macbook pro 15" 2.4ghz. Im a designer, i havent even created my appleid, im on my sisters... i made a sacrifice to buy this $2700 laptop.
    and Im so dissapointed...
    I CANT SEE SMOOTH GRADIENTS.. all i see are ugly lines... i dont get it, for such a high class LAPTOP.
    Apple support please help me solve this. ive been reading forums about 6bit screens for this laptop.. i dont want to believe that. can someone explain? im returning this...

    I can verify that all of Apple's laptops use 18 bit (6 bits per Red, Green Blue) color, which is about 260,000 colors. The OS then using dithering to fake the missing colors. Despite what you have read, they are incapable of 24 bit 'millions of colors'.
    The problem with this argument is that, when it comes down to it, the color displays are made up of dithered red, green, and blue elements anyway. We accept that this form of display gives us "full color", so it's difficult to argue that millions of colors can't be represented using the same mechanism. It's not quite 16.7 million (more like 16.3 or something) but Apple's text has always taken care to read "millions of colors" rather than 16.7 million (which you'll still see on the specifications for the Cinema displays).
    Just for informational sakes though, these kinds of 6-bit displays don't rely on OS spatial dithering; they actually make use of their very fast switching to perform temporal dithering, switching a pixel between two shades very quickly to generate an in-between shade. That's why for most people the result is usually visually indistinguishable from true 8-bit color, and doesn't look like what you'd see with traditional dithering.
    If the OP is noticing severe banding on gradients, it's more likely to be an issue with color profiles than with the display being 6-bit.

  • Can someone explain the use of a hashtable in java?

    can someone explain the use of a hashtable in java?

    Hashtable allows us to store values along with keys.
    One other advantage is, it provides Synchronised methods.
    Hope you got it.

  • Can Someone Explain the order of things Using Swingworker?

    Hi:
    Can someone explain very clearly the order of things using Swingworker? Please do not refer the SUN tutorials. I am totally dead in the water with a very large application and the order of things is not sensible. Also, if the worker thread is too long, the GUI gets updated, but my progress bar (killed right after in the finished method) remains running in some instances only.
    Can someone explain any debugging methods for thread work?
    I am a veteran programmer of 19 years and this one's got me. The event dispatch thread returns immediate, the GUI responds well, but the progress bar setVisible(false); ... just after in the finished() method (on Event Dispatch thread) does not go away, continues running, only on very long (large query) work. I'm truly stumped. I have successful applications of the Swingworker use, the progress bar, and everything works fine. Not this one.
    Debugging threads is what I need. Or some tool that visually shows threads as the program runs.
    Thanks for any help,
    PiratePete

    Thanks. I guess I should count my blessings when using free stuff. But I have been impressed with what the J2SDK has to offer. I have been writing a complicated application that I am going to market and most of my problems have been "design" in nature.
    Thanks again,

  • Can someone explain the code for having the Accordion panels closed?

    I located the answer to my own question (how to get all the accordion panels to remain closed when the browser opens) but I still don't understand the answer. Can someone explain this?
    This feature is only supported when using variable height panels, so you must pass a false into the Accordion's constructor for the "useFixedPanelHeights" constructor options, and a -1 for the "defaultPanel" option:
    <script type="test/javascript">
    var acc1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion ("Acc1", { useFixPanelHeights: false, defaultPanel: -1});
    </script>

    Hi Angela,
    You are right, the only way it will work is by setting the fixed height to false. As for the for the default panel option, -1 is not a panel and if you had 3 panels we could have used the number 3 (panel1 = 0) or 99 or whatever as long as there is no panel with that number. If we had used the number 1 for instance, then the 2nd panel would be opened by default.
    Hope this helps.
