I’m not really seeing much of difference in Geekbench scores after disabling hyper-threading on my new iMac. These numbers have been pretty consistent:

My scores were very similar with hyper-threading on. Multi-core was still on the low end, hovering around 30K most of the time, and single core scores remained in the 6300/6400s, which is above the average.

I’ll install more RAM later today.. not that I expect more RAM to make a difference in benchmarks (though it will be interesting if does).

Update: Scores did improve installing more RAM with hyper-threading still disabled. I know I didn't get above 30,000 with 8GB of RAM and hyper-threading enabled.
