Hi all,

Just a quick question. Does anyone know if Nero 12 uses Hyperthreading???
I've Googled it but I can't find a definite answer.

I ask because I'm seeing the same recoding/transcoding times give or take a few seconds from a 3770k with HT enabled and a 3570k at the same clock :-\ So I'm a little confused to whether or not it actually uses HT.

Would appreciate any feedback.
Cheers

Thanks. I found an app to monitor the core and thread usage, and yes indeed Nero does use HT. BUT!...... Weirdly, it took the exact same time to recode a HD movie with HT disabled as it did with HT enabled! :-\
With HT disabled it used 99% of the cores and took 34mins, but with HT enabled it still took 34mins but the core usage went down to 81%. How strange! It must be recoding as quick as it can do it.

Anyway thank you for your reply.
Cheers
