    Hello,
    How can i disable hyperthreading in my G74SX (cpu i7 2670qm)?

    I read somewhere that using it off would help with BF3. If anyone knows something about it please give me some feedback.

    Regards

    You can't. And that is just hogwash. BF3 supports multi-threading and it will use as many threads as allowed, all 8 logical cores. Just placebo dudes who mess up their computers doing dumb registry tweaks etc.
