I know everyone here likes to call these things "cores". But Intel called it hyper-
threading for a reason. It is a thread, not a core. It never was a core, it never will be a core.
Calling them physical and virtual cores is mighty confusing. All cores are physical. The rest are threads feeding the cores. No virtual-anything is required.
