CPUz shows wrong reading for Pentium D

[maverick786us]

My processor Model No is Intel Pentium D 915* but when i downloaded and run the utility CPUZ it showed 920. What does Asterisk (*) signifies after 915?

if you have the newest version of cpu-z just wait for an update, if you don't - update to it.

cpu-z is known to do this sort of thing.

Yes I tried with latest CPU-Z

915, is basically the same thing as the 920... except I think Virtualization Tech. is disabled.

Same multiplier, same performance, probably slightly better overclocking, just you can't run the multiple OS's at the same time natively with the chip.

So.... so what if CPU-Z doesn't know the difference yet, it often gets "newer" chips names wrong.

I wonder how well they OC
