How to find out the Intel Processor Number for my CPU model on linux ?
I bought a server from a webhosting company and I don't know which CPU model it has. I only know it is a Pentium D , dual core. But the model can be one of the following: 805/820/830/840/915/925/935/945/920/930/940/950/960/955/965
But the /proc/cpuinfo shows model as '6' , so how do I find out the real cpu model? Because there is no Pentium D model 6 on the market.

Model or cpu_model is An integer that is vendor dependent and indicates their version of the cpu_family. Model 6 refers to the 9xx series. So if we look at your clock speed it should be either a 925 or a 930.
