[/i] ...and those hex core processors are HyperThreaded, so PP2010 will render twelve threads. You will need to set the number of threads in edit:general preferences:render, but what PP2010 offers in that tab depends on your processor. For an H/T hex core, the max will be twelve. I believe that P8 also has a maximum capacity of 32 threads (like PP2010), but I can only personally confirm that it renders eight threads on a HyperThreaded core i7 quad.
