You're probably reading stuff from the CoreDuo era. You're stuck in the past, just like you were with the core parking thing.
Whatever the circumstances, at least I'm not spreading misinformation.
Newer games will benefit from HT. It's pretty obvious that the cpu will generate less heat if you disable HT. Less processing power, less heat. What a shocker! Might as well underclock the CPU...
There's literally no benefit in disabling HT, unless you're running a very specific compute applications that requires that to actually gain performance (Matlab, for example).
Basically, HT uses residual cycles from a physical core to get more work done. If you disable HT for a multithreaded application, the power usage might go down but it will hurt performance. It will take more cycles to get the job done, essentially nullifying any benefit.

Hardware Unboxed did some testing on this some time ago. The results are clear as day.
Stop spreading misinformation from articles you read more than 10 years ago. Don't waste your time or anyone elses.
Now, you want something to play with? Go to bios-mods.com forums and make a request for a modded bios there. You might get lucky, if you're polite enough. IF by any chance you come across a modded bios for your laptop, flash it and run some proper benchmarks.
I will be waiting for the results.
Good luck!

you mr are salty and poisonous, everyone knows that games do not get better performance from 12 cores, it would require crazy amounts of optimizations to make 12 threads work nicely. so
SHUT THE F *** UP IF YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING 😄
BTw, i have modded bios and i did the benchmarks, now i'm just playing with you mr. 🙂 you just lost.

Oh really? That's neat. Show us the results.

"beer" yees, i am 32 years old and you are brassing with beer.. that just completely proves that you are a young boy age around 18 - 22 who has just started his beer drinkin life. just stop being the person you are and be happy that i'm here to provide true information about these asus laptops that tend to have multiple issues regarding BIOS / HARDWARE and SOFTWARE. asus has not done so well with these laptop's and their RMA department knows that very well.
here is a sample of the bios menus you can unlock.

All you can do apparently is flame people around the forums... Keep doing that and you won't be here for too long.
I asked you for the benchmark results, not the bios menus screenshots. And I can't see anything HT related in there. You literally googled "gl703 unlocked bios" and uploaded the images. Those are the first 3 results. That's lazy.
Run the benchmarks and reply with the results. I'm patiently waiting.
This guy, which runs a very small YT channel is literally the only one I've seen so far that showed those results. He's literally just running around the map and recording the results. Also really close to be GPU bound in some cases. No methodology whatsoever. I'm sorry but I'm more inclined to trust Hardware Unboxed instead. I just posted the link in the previous reply. Take your time and watch it.
If all you play is Counter Strike, go ahead and turn HT off. For everything else (except compute tasks), leave it on. That's literally the only game I've seen that shows consistent gains with HT turned off. A game running on an engine from 2004. Wonder why...
Like I said before, you're living in the past.
