So I was sitting here today and it suddenly dawned on me that most the CPU utilization meters I've seen for i7 are flawed, and the ones that do get it right don't have pretty bar charts. Most of them show utilization for 8 separate threads (which they mistakenly call cores), which is fine if you want a thread meter, but what if you want to see the utilization of each core as a whole as well as thread utilization?
Does anyone else see the problem here or is it just me?
If you agree with me, you can try this Vista sidebar gadget, a modification of mCPU Meter, I created today.
The two threads on each core are a different color.
