I am studying about Intel Architecture and OS.
I can figure out desktop's specification such as core speed, bus speed, multipliers using 'CPU-z'
I heard that 'CPU-z' was implemented as a device driver.
In my think, it shows user values in registers.
I found MSR(Model Specific Register) called MSR_FSB_FREQ through Intel manual.
By using that register i was able to figure bus speed, however, it was only able to be used
on Intel Core 2 family not on i7 and i5.
Could you help me hands calculating bus speed or tell me about register can get bus speed or multiplier?
thx in advance
