munky Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 8-core Mac Pro i'd beleive, but an 8-core MacBook Pro? I seriously doubt it. Get him to show you it, and ask him to open Activity Monitor. If there are 8 cpu graphs, then its 8-core. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/44017-idk-if-anyone-cares-but/#findComment-314818 Share on other sites More sharing options...

adriandkicks Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I willing to bet that he tricked system profiler into saying 8 core...Its just a few lines of code...Quad core pre release I could possibly belive from a credible person BUT 8 cores in a laptop is not physically possible there is just not enough chip space for 8 cores.
