Task manager displays limited processing power while CPU-Z indicates full capacity.
Task manager displays limited processing power while CPU-Z indicates full capacity.
I launched Steam and was prompted to join their hardware survey, so I did. While browsing the list, I spotted an inconsistency—it mentioned only two physical processors and four logical ones, even though my machine has an AMD A8-7600, which should be a quad-core processor. After checking CPU-Z, it showed four cores and four threads. Task Manager confirmed two cores and four threads. I’m confused about this discrepancy and feel a bit foolish since I didn’t realize it until recently (bought it second-hand). Have you experienced anything like this before? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I’ve attached a screenshot of both tools.
It's good to hear there are no issues. Appreciate you sharing this.
