Help with how to find number of CPU and Cores in Window Server 2016?

Question

Good Morning ,

I am a newbie and I would like to get your help and expertise on how to find number of cpu and cores in mine Microsoft Server 2016.

I went toTask Manager, Performance , and I only see the number of logical process. I could not find number of cores. Is that number of cores equal number of logical processor or CPU? If it is then is number of cores equaled to 32 which is increadibly big?

Could you please help to tell me how can I get number of cores?

Answer 1

Yes, add them up. It looks like it may be 16 cores total

Answer 3

Dave,

I found out that there are many processors when I executed msinfo32 from cmd.exe.

May I ask if I need to manually count them in order to know how many processors that I have ? or

is there a way to find out the exactly number of CPU without manually counting them?

Aso how can I find the number of cores since I did not see any core listing below , only number of logical processors?

Attached is my finding

Thanks for the helps,

Du

Answer 4

Thanks Dave.

I am going to follow your instruction to add the logical processor ort CPU .

I have a question regarding the number of cores. If the number of CPU is 32, then is it true that teh number of cores is half of the number of CPU which is 16?

Thanks,

Du

Answer 5

Not sure the context here but if for server licensing then don't count logical cores, only physical cores. So take the sum of each processor listed in msinfo32 times the cores to get the actual core count.
