I don't know much, but I know that with this computer i get the benefit of being able to use the SSE or SSE4 executables. And SSE stands for: "If it doesn't crash, use it."

So I know which choice to make there. But what if I am looking at a choice of an exe that says SSE or SSE4.2 and another exe that says Popcnt? I guess that is short for Popcount. But which choice do I make then- SSE or Popcnt? Rolling Eyes


Thanks,

george


Choose the POPCNT exe. Then run it. If it crashes, then your cpu probably doesn't support the POPCNT instruction. But if your cpu supports SSE4.2, it likely supports POPCNT too.
