Sorry… I said “core” when I should have said “processor”. You have four processors, divided over two sockets of two cores (processors) in each socket.
Here’s what I have:

The other one is turned off right now, I’ll get the info for it tomorrow (my brother-in-law is sleeping in the room where it’s located at the moment).
Enjoy!
