@Siphonay@octodon.social @noiob yes but how do two logical cores on the same physical core have different clock speeds?

@Felthry @Siphonay@octodon.social I don't think they can? can you show a screenshot of that tool?

@Felthry @Siphonay@octodon.social yeah I don't get how they aren't synced up in pairs, they're supposed to feed the same ALU after all

@noiob @Siphonay@octodon.social I suppose they probably do have multiple ALUs (or at least ALUs with independent parts; there's probably no more than one divider for instance but several adders) per core though, intel pioneered that kind of architecture a while ago
