Haven't kept up with the AMD CPU line so don't know if the Ryzen lineup support Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT) [a] If you plan to run to VMs then more vCPU you have, the better it is + the RAM to support. Lenovo gaming laptop has Core i7-8750 (6 cores) and with HT you get 12 vCPU. RAM start with 16GB (1 DIMM) and leave DIMM slots for later expansion. [a] (Hyper Threading in Intel lingo for multiple (2) threads per core). -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ plug-mail mailing list [email protected] http://list.plug.org.in/listinfo/plug-mail
