I recently needed to find out the model of CPU I had in mac. If you look in About This Mac
or the relevant system profile you find some basic information.
- Intel Core i7
- 3.2 Ghz.
No where is there the actual CPU model. Open up Terminal
and type sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string
sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5557U CPU @ 3.10GHz
There we go! Actual detail about my Macbook’s CPU.
