Chew, do you think there is a significant difference between running with 4 cores disabled in bios and running all 8 of them but using something lile the thg task manager i posted a while back to force thread affinity to 4 different cu? Perhaps even more performance to be had by allowing os and other background tasks to be offloaded to other ccores? Or the performance benefit from 4c/4cu only happens when the remaining clusters are hard disabled?

Thank you for your time!
