Correction: P-Threads: 16, E-Threads: 16, Total Cores: 24 (8 performance, 16 efficiency). Total threads should be 32, not 24.

No. Core Ultra 200 series drops hyperthreading. P cores have 1 thread each. Total threads are 24.

Intel removed hyperthreading. The setup is 8+16 cores.

That's it, They killed the "i3, i5, i7, i9" branding. Now all future Intel Core processors will have a "3, 5, 7, or 9" branding.

My 9950x beats you in multi-thread tests, not single thread. People said the 9950x isn't good, but I think it is.

Intel's single-thread is strong, but I doubt it beats the 9800X3D or 7800X3D in gaming.

Imagine this CPU paired with an RTX 4090.

This comment didn't age well, worse than 14900K in gaming, and far behind the 7800X3D.

Finally HyperThreading is ditched. Now CPU will have way better Latency
