How to find out the total number of virtual core your CPU has
This is the specification of my computer however i have problem finding out how many virtual cores are there in total .
I would like to know if there is any command in windows 7 which would help me determine the number of virtual cores my CPU has
Solution 1:
You can pull the information from WMI via PowerShell:
PS> WmiObject -class win32_processor -Property Name, NumberOfCores, NumberOfLogicalProcessors | Format-List -Property Name, NumberOfCores, NumberOfLogicalProcessors
Will produce something like:
Name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955 Processor
NumberOfCores : 4
NumberOfLogicalProcessors : 4
Add a -computername <computername>
argument and you can pull the info from networked computers as well.
Solution 2:
Try the following from a command prompt:
wmic cpu get name,numberofcores,numberoflogicalprocessors
As noted by techie007 in his answer, you can pull information from remote computers by adding a /node:<computername>
between wmic
and cpu
, and replacing <computername>
with the name of the host you would like to query. The /node:
parameter can be used on any WMIC query, not just this one.
Hope that helps.
