Mac/Linux/Windows : Get CPU information from command line
Writing these down here for future references, will be handy with comes to identifying a machine's CPU information during system maintenance time. Below are the command line tools to get the CPU information in Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
Linux:
$cat /proc/cpuinfo
Mac OS X:
$sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string
Windows 8 and above:
C:>wmic cpu full /format:list
NOTE: For Windows, without the /format:list
... the output result will be almost impossible to read. You can choose to use /format:htable
for HTML, /format:csv
for csv format or /format:xml
for xml format as well.
