Intel could be on the verge of bringing another major shift in its architectural design after going big.LITTLE hybrid route. The company is seemingly looking to Hyper-threading on the next-gen.

Task Manager of prototype Intel CPU shows Core and Logical processor count are the same at 8.

This is still a relatively low end chip if its just 8 cores and a 13500 has 6 + 8 = 14 total so this is maybe a laptop processor. Hyperthreading probably doesn’t make sense anymore.

    My argument is that if you have more than 8 cores, hyperthreading is useless. If less than 8, it is beneficial. The original approach to hyperthreading was taken to make dual and quad cores more efficient.
