Cpu cores showing quad when dual?

[piercedfreak]

I have a single Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz 5050 SL96C. FreeBSD show it as a 'quad' core, instead of a 'dual' core, which Intel list it as. My motherboard is dual CPU capable, but I do not have a second CPU installed. Is there a way to fix this?

Where does it say quad core?
If you mean cpus instead of cores that's normal because of hyperthreading.
