tvon Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 [edit: NEVERMIND, it's a 4 core, 8-thread CPU, duh] I've been using this Hack for work for two months and just realized that half of the iStat menu CPU displays are always near-flat, and now I see that "System Profiler" says the machine has 4 cores. Ideas on what is wrong and what I need to do to fix this? I can find some older posts about modifying the bios, is this necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatzeOS86 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Well, thats not a problem, its just normal. The i7 has only 4 cores, but it has 8 threads. Thats why the System Profiler says your machine has 4 cores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
