![]() (Normal PCs run in "UMA mode".) Windows creates "processor groups" and "NUMA nodes" that group cores together. Machines with multiple CPUs or have large core counts can run in what is called "NUMA mode". The next issue to consider is that - regardless of core count - Windows processes can see only 64 logical cores at a time. You can also have servers with multiple CPUs (known as SMP), so core counts can get huge. A single Threadripper/Epyc CPU can have up to 256 logical cores. There are CPUs (specifically thinking of AMD Threadrippers) with more than 64 logical cores. No one has created a CPU with more than 2 threads per core (.yet). Intel Alder Lake and later hybrid CPUs can have "efficiency cores" which are single-threaded and also run at a different base clock than the hyper-threaded "performance cores". As far as I know, as of today, AMD CPUs are always hyperthreaded (two threads/core). A physical core in modern CPUs can have either one or two threads (a.k.a., logical cores). In the processor skin from my minimalist suite, for example, I chose to only display the overall CPU info at all times in the main skin (the "bar" at the top) and display the other details in another "tooltip skin" that's shown "on demand", on mouse over the main one's white title area:Īs you suspect, this can get quite complicated. if you bought the right device, if its actual speed or parameters are what you thought they'll be, if any of the device parts has a problem, etc). It's like being able to show a bunch of details in HWInfo and similar: most of them don't have a direct / critical importance, but it boosts the "coolness" of the software (hey, look how many things I can show you about this and that) and, of course, it only becomes really important if those details tell you something you must absolutely know (e.g. The per logical processor / core data (not physical core, since I'm not sure how one could identify it physically if, say, the logical processors would not be "in order" so that they can be "grouped" two by two or similar for each physical core, maybe SilverAzide knows more about that since I didn't even bother with the physical aspect and make my task more difficult than it was) is not as much intended to monitor each logical processor, but to - optionally, for the detail oriented users - display their situation and number. The most important data is the overall CPU usage, frequency and temperature.

But since this question concerns the possibilities of Rainmeter directly and you both know much more about hardware than I do at the present time, I dare to ask. My technical question: Would it be wise to show the values of percentage, frequencies of each core ?] or am I missing an important detail why the information per logical processor is more relevant? I only have found skins and descriptions to show logical processors or the whole CPU usage, so I guess, what I am asking, isn´t possible in Rainmeter - or not recommendable. So if you have a modern computer the number of logical processors can be very large. There are CPUs which combine both variants, while each core has its own frequency. Before I think of variants, I have a technical question, otherwise following questions might be a waste of everyone´s time.Īs far as I know, cores most often have two logical processors, sometimes just one. I will have to come up with a different design as planned.
