I am going to build a new computer and one of the choices involves the type of CPU.   i5-7600k or i7-7700k, the i5-7600k has no hyperthreading, while the i7-7700k has hyperthreading.  Does anybody know if Home Designer Pro 2018 makes use of hyperthreading?

Hyperthreading is something that happens in the hardware.

 

Home Designer using threading, so, by default, will take advantage of hyperthreading.

 

A SSD will make a difference too.

 

Lots of recent info on ChiefTalk -- search for xeon.

I have been using Chief Premier and Home Designer software since versions 4 (Chief) and (6) Home Designer. Since 1995 I have always had dual monitors  with which that software works perfectly well. With Dual monitors each one is a different size, the ones I have now are 18" and 30", At need I can change the font size and icon size in those programs ( in Windows and in Chief but not HD) anytime I wish though I generally leave their resolutions alone at their maximum resolutions with no problems for a 70 year old dude with waning eyesight.
