User:Karpių3/High-end Desktop CPU Market Segment

The high-end desktop (HEDT) CPU market segment refers to a class of computer central processing units (CPUs) designed for enthusiasts, prosumers, and professionals who require high computational performance, multi-threading capabilities, and expandability beyond what typical mainstream desktop CPUs offer.

Overview
HEDT CPUs are differentiated from mainstream CPUs by their larger core/thread counts, expanded memory interfaces (often supporting quad-channel or more), greater PCIe lanes, and compatibility with enthusiast-grade motherboards that offer advanced features. These CPUs are designed to handle demanding tasks such as content creation, 3D rendering, high-resolution video editing, scientific simulations, and other intensive workloads.
