CPU Resource pool with and without hyperthreading in vmware esx/esxi

  • 772

VMWare ESX/ESXI running with AMD 12core @2.2GHz. Intel 6core @2.4GHz

In resource pool, with amd cpu I should see 26.4GHz available. Now it's interesting what will be shown with Intel CPU? Am I gonna get 14.4GHz resource pool or 28.8GHz?
