What is the Intel® Processor Identification Utility?

This application allows end users to obtain information about their Intel® Processor: Name, number, some technologies, and graphics supported. It is not supported on engineering samples (ES).

The application lets you check and save the processor information such as frequency, technologies, and CPUID data.

There are three sections: Processor Frequency, CPU Technologies, and CPUID.

PROCESSOR FREQUENCY Section

  • CPU Speed
  • System Bus
  • L3 Cache Memory
  • Threads
  • Cores

Here is an example:

Example

CPU TECHNOLOGIES Section

Intel® Virtualization, Intel® Hyper-Threading, Intel® 64 architecture, Enhanced Intel SpeedStep®, Intel® AES New Instructions, Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions, Intel® Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE), Execute Disable Bit, and Enhanced halt state Technologies.

If Intel® Virtualization is not checked in this application, and it shows as enabled in the Task Manager, then the Intel® Virtualization is used by some other software on the machine. Refer to the table in Does My Processor Support Intel® Virtualization Technology? for more information.

Here is an example:

Example

CPUID DATA Section

  • Processor Type, Family, Model, Stepping Revision, and CPUID
  • Cache information
  • Graphics controller name
