Because some people just need "any" basic cpu & want to build something that is i/o intensive & not cpu intensive...? Or want the features but don't care about the cpu...

People here often make the assumption that everyone is a 750Hz 240p Esports champion.

I don't live in Europe. Never been or wanted to go. I know when I order stuff from Europe there is a conversion to find the amount in USD. I did that. Intel should have sent a pricing sheet out then there wouldn't have been a discrepancy.

Intel never gives RCP in anything other than USD, as far as I'm aware. Retailers do not have to strictly adhere to the RCP, but €440 - 20% VAT ≈ $425 USD

Oh I'm sorry, let me apologize for the existence of Europe, and the fact that our taxes are an inconvenience to you.

I did the conversion and that was fine with me. :)

But you did it incorrectly, that was the point. And now you've had this news post up with incorrect pricing since then. At least edit it and state the $510 pricing was from direct Euro pricing conversion from the quoted source.

Stop that. That's not how it works. HT is just another CPU-wired mechanism for handling resources and dealing with resource contention within the executing pipeline. HT doesn't work on everything and that fact has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the software. This has everything to do resource contention management mechanism and there is no best approach for every scenario etc.

I agree with you but that doesn't change the fact that some software/games run slower with HT enabled.
