Wrong CPU displaying

Speccy only displays what it gets from WMI Services.

If Speccy shows 4170, it's getting that data from the firmware.

To confirm, start a Command Prompt, type wmic and press Enter, then type cpu get name and hit Enter.

Backup now & backup often.
It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.
Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Also have an issue with CPU identification. My CPU is a Pentium G4500 (3.5 GHz Skylake) and Speccy indicates i5-6600K on the summary page - which I copied and pasted below:

However on the CPU page it indicates the following:

Great program otherwise, reassures my system is running as cool as I designed it to run.
