Assuming you have enough memory, conventional wisdom is to use 5 then. I have 4 pretending to be 8, so that's what the 9 is about. The next generation Thinkpad would have allowed getting a processor doing that without exceeding thermal design power. But then I don't have a discrete GPU and don't do a lot of video processing. I still have the original 2-core somewhere in a drawer. -- David Kastrup My replies have a tendency to cause friction. To help mitigating damage, feel free to forward problematic posts to me adding a subject like "timeout 1d" (for a suggested timeout of 1 day) or "offensive".
