Nucleo real or logic in processor

[lfern11]

I have a great doubt about nucleo real and logic in a processor.

1. In first time, what's nucleo real and logic in a processor?

2. The Intel Corporation create something processor with more of one processor real in your models?

Well, I see various specifications about processor on real or logic nucleo how:

Intel I7 5960x Lga 2011-3 X99 8 Cores 16 Ht

This processor has:

1. 8 Cores, but it's real or logic

2. 16 HT, but How should the division

Thanks,

each core has 2 thread if hyperthread enable, physical cores =8, logical cores =16.

Hello Lamequee,

Thank you for joining the Intel communities.

This is called physical cores and logical cores, the physical cores are the 8 cores in this processor and the 16 is the logical ones and is called Hyper-Threading.

One core can run multiple tasks at one when Hyper-Threading Technology is active, you can see more information at the following link:
