Intel i7 as 3.61Ghz Unknown
Yes the speed is correct, but how do I fix the unknown part? I have SMBios.plist, but I dont see how to fix it there.
I read the other "wrong cpu info" thread but I did not see a fix there.

Well, editing "about this mac" mac for appearance if easy.
I am asking around, sorry for cross-posting, but the thread is similar... how do you check that CPU and RAM speeds are actually working at right speed? I also want to find out how to make the system properly recognize it. _____________________________________________ Acer 6936g 864G32mn [@ Snow Leopard 10.6.1 32/64bit C2D 2,4Ghz 4Gb 1066mhz DDR3 9600m GT 512 GDDR3 ___Snow Leopard tutorial -> http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...ted-for-t4183/ _________Leopard tutorial ->http://www.infinitemac.com/f19/guide...-iatkos-t3357/ |

CPU, use Cpu-X
But I still can't figure out the "Just for appearance" I just want it to show my i7 instead of Unknown.

CPU-x extracts from binary I think... does it go through the OS?
I think it was OSXTools that enable you to edit "About This Mac" I am talking about benchmarks, run tests to triple check... _____________________________________________ Acer 6936g 864G32mn [@ Snow Leopard 10.6.1 32/64bit C2D 2,4Ghz 4Gb 1066mhz DDR3 9600m GT 512 GDDR3 ___Snow Leopard tutorial -> http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...ted-for-t4183/ _________Leopard tutorial ->http://www.infinitemac.com/f19/guide...-iatkos-t3357/ Last edited by Gurruwiwi; 09-05-2009 at 07:09 PM. |

I don't think that OSX86Tools works in snow leopard for customizing 10.6 About this mac.

Yea, I tried using OSX86Tools and it screwed mine up. So you'll have to do it manually - it's really not that hard.
Go to /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/AboutThisMac.strings Here's a sample from mine: Code:
"ABOUT_BOX_SINGLE_PROCESSOR_FIELD_FORMAT" = "3.02 GHz Intel Core 2 Quad"; Asus P5KC | Q6600 3.02GHz | 4 GB DDR2 887MHz | 9800GTX | 1TB WD Caviar Black Snow Leopard 10.6.2 Sleep | Vanilla Speedstep | DSDT Everything you need can be downloaded here.

I use Geekbench to see what the Score is after I tweak my System.
