Re: [motherboard] Windows 8 says I have 8 CPUs

And yet again you are incorrect:

AMD FX-8120 Zambezi 3.1GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Eight-Core Desktop Processor FD8120FRGUBOX

How is he wrong? 61 is far greater than 8.

oh and as to CPU's that people might actually use, intel has a 12 core CPU, and for awhile has had a 10 core. (eat that AMD) both intel CPU's I mention are hyper threaded.

The part I had a problem with was the c 'cores' and AMDs version of hyperthreading as noted that I only posted about the CPU, not who had the most cores.

I have researched more and found that it is 4 physical 'cores' with I believe hypertransport (AMDs version of Intels hyperthreading).
