[Sensor Panel Questions - Why do I have double the number of CPU Utilization as Cores? Why Is my memory clock speed half?]

Hi All

 

I suspect these are very basic questions, but any help would be appreciated

 

1) I have a 6 core processor, I can se that I have CPU Core #1-#6 under clock speed, but under CPU Utilization, I have the numbers 1-12? Double the amount?

Why do I have double the amount?

 

2) I have a 3600Mhz RAM, but it's display half that value, only 1800Mhz for Memory Clock? 

Why is this half the amount? Can I "double" it for display purposes?

 

Thank you

 

Hi 3lj,

As for your item #1, the reason you you have twice as many "CPU Utilization" entries as you have Cores... your processor is likely  Hyper-Threaded. That means that each core appears to to operating system as two logical processors each that can be scheduled separately. 

If you would like to know more about HT, may I suggest the Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-threading

As far as the memory clock, I would take a look in your BIOS and see if there are memory settings you can tweak to take advantage of the faster memory. It may be auto configuring to this lesser value.

Hi Fiery,

Do you need any additional information?

Is there a way I can get to the "CPU1 Temperature"?

 It would also be desirable to have access to the Fan Speed for JSYS0 & JSYS1 (currently only CPU1 and CPU2 Fan Speeds are currently showing in the Sensor properties for AIDA64 v6.33.5700.

Many Thanks!

Hi Fiery,

The BIOS is not UEFI but yes I can see not only the CPU temperatures but the CPU PWM Temp and several Fans that are not available in the hardware monitor.

I'm attaching both a screen shot from the EVGA SR-2 CMOS BIOS of the Hardware Health Function page and a Sensor report from Aida64 Extreme.

I appreciate your time in looking into to it for me!

Cheers!

Folks,

Forgive me for a possible naive question, I'm a newbie, I don't think this has been answered elsewhere in the forum.

I have a SR-2 dual Xeon system (still going strong after 10 years)! 

 I'd like to monitor each of the CPU's  temperatures.

I see an entry for CPU1 (which corresponds to the ECP Temperature display) as well as all of the individual cores for both CPUs but I don't see a CPU2 Temperature.

The only related forum discussion I've seen was back in 2018 related to a different motherboard (supporting dual E5-2699v4) where there was a beta release change made to support "CPU1 Package" and "CPU2 Package". I'm not seeing anything like that for my SR-2 motherboard.

Is there something I need to configure to expose the CPU2 temperature information?

Thanks!
