Pentium 4 HT 530 Review

Pentium 4 HT 530 is basically a Pentium 4 3.0GHZ but with Hyper-Threading technology support. It still has only one core but the Hyper-Threading allows it to perform multiple tasks as if there's more than one core doing the work. This obviously doesn't affect today's games as a single 3.0GHZ core even with HT isn't, most probably, enough to handle today's games at high settings.
Compared to the original Pentium 4 3.0GHZ the performance is significantly better but the Prescott architecture is one of intel's worst and the performance may hinder due to overheating issues.

I would recommend it :) or go for a Pentium D as they are quite powerful.. the dual core does come in handy over two threads :D

Its a great CPU.. I got a 2.8Ghz P4HT but would like a 2.3+Ghz core 2 duo as it does cause some games to lag quite bit.. **cough cough** doom3 **cough** ;)
