Processor version not detected on PowerEdge M630

Question

Hi All, We have two PowerEdge M630 Hosts, each one contains  2 x E5-2683 V4, 16c, 2.1 Ghz We have installed VMware ESXi 6.0.0 on each server. The issue is that we have the Processor type always mentioning: Genuine Intel(R) CPU 0000 @ 2.00GHz Is there any solution to have the right name please ? and does this impact the performance of the cpu  inside VMs? Many thanks

Hi, Are you using our version of ESX? Are you using EVC features?

Hi, Thanks for your response, our host provider installed the original VMware version of ESX and we are not using EVC features Thanks
