How it's Seen:::...

Version 1.29 of CPU-Z now correctly identifies the X2 and sees both cores correctly.

For the heck of it I also ran CPU-z's memory latency app too:

 

Device manager also sees both cores as you'e expect it to, though the model numbers remain unidentified thus far.

 

Windows Task Manager also sees both cores and accurately reports usage history for both.


Windows Task Manager

 

And while dual cores may be overkill, Windows is happy to share the load between them even for fairly mundane tasks like installing software.
