B — The question states “there is a flat per-socket licensing fee.” Dual Processor Motherboard (motherboards equipped with two sockets) allow you to use two CPUs at the same. Hyper threaded cores split each physical core into virtual cores, which are known as threads. For each processor core that is physically present, the operating system addresses two virtual (logical) cores. So a dual-core CPU with hyper-threading appears as four cores. According to Intel, hyper-threading your cores can result in a 30% increase in performance and speed. Overclocking ten cores from 3.4 GHz to 3.6 GHz, is an additional 2 GHz, a six percent increase. Since the fee is per socket rather than per core:
Not (A) A dual-processor motherboard with six hyper threaded cores each: charged for 2 sockets and power is 12 cores.
(B) A single-processor motherboard with hyper threaded eight cores: charged for ONE SOCKET AND POWER IS 16 CORES.
Not (C) A dual-processor motherboard with eight overclocked cores each: charged for 2 sockets and power is 8 cores.
Not (D) A single-processor motherboard with ten overclocked cores: charged 1 socket and power is 10.5 cores.
