This was a technology used by Intel to improve CPU utilization by splitting a processing workload into parallel threads. Thanks to Hyper Threading, the CPU appeared to the OS as multi-core. To make use of this feature, it was essential that the OS and motherboard supported it. Thermal Design Profile refers to the average energy (expressed in watts) in the form of heat that the HSF has to dissipate from the CPU. This can be taken as a rule-of-thumb measure of the energy consumed by the CPU.
