Hi!

Sorry if i posting this in the wrong forum.

I want to build a new PC, and for its cpu specs i want to choose one according rpcs3 recommendended specs.

I have about 325$ budget constraint on this, so my question would be...

for a 10th gen Intel cpu which is better for rpcs3 emulation?

-4 core with hyperthread (total: 8 thread)

OR

-6 core without hyperthread (total: 6 thread)

which is more important the number of physical cores or the number of threads?

Im asking this because its not clear for me

thx
What CPUs specifically
srry looks like all 10th gen Intel cpu's are equipped with hyperthreading. A oversight from my part.

But i have another question tied to the number of cores VS clockspeed.

currently i want to decide beetween these two CPU

- Core i3-10100 (3.6 Ghz, 4 cores, 8 threads)

OR

- Core i5-10600 (3.3 Ghz, 6 cores, 12 threads)

which is more important? the clockspeed? or the number of cores/threads?

which gives the better performance for RPCS3?
i5-10600 easily destroys i3-10100. i5-10600 also has double cache size and higher boost, but RPCS3 uses the extra cores too.
