Title: Intel Alder Lake-S CPU with 16 cores and 24 threads spotted in SiSoft Sandra benchmark database
Post by: Redaktion on October 06, 2020, 18:05:17
Even though the CPU ID reads 16C 32T, the thread count only shows 24 threads. Apparently only the 8 Golden Cove big cores support hyperthreading, while the 8 Gracemont small cores do not. The test sample seems to support only DDR4 memory, but this is probably due to the absence of DDR5 specs in the testing software.

Any idea why they need those extra 500 pins in the new socket?
