AMD Dual-Core Optimizer with Intel Processor
I have an Intel i7-6500U (2 cores) and came across the program "AMD Dual-Core Optimizer" on my system. Why was this installed? Do I need it? Can I safely delete it?

You probably installed it yourself. IDK how you got it on your system. Yes remove it. And run a scan with Malwarebytes aswell.
How is that still present? Even with a Motherboard + CPU upgrade from an old AMD system; that optimizer was meant only for AMD CPU + WinXP

Yes of course, everything from the old Motherboard should have been Uninstalled by you during such a hardware upgrade.
I'm using a laptop I received last Christmas, and the only thing I've upgraded is the RAM. I'll still remove it, I'm just curious as to how I got it.
Then yea, I can't imagaine how it ever got on there.
I'm betting the OEM brand for whatever reason put that on their as part of their pre-installed drivers/software. Kind of odd to see that these days. That was simply meant as a driver helper of sorts for AMD Dual/Quad Core CPUs running an OS like WinXP, since it wasn't good as far as AMD CPUs when it came to that, but had no issues handling Intel multi-core CPUs. Overall I think that had something to do with Chipset, Drivers and things MS never included in XP, which was why such AMD software was needed.

I'll just go with what you said ;). Thanks!
Probably some game installed it. I also had it on my system with Duke Nukem Forever.
Overall, it can't "hurt" anything
I've gotten it from games in the past. It's probably not as alarming as it might seem.
Maybe you installed a game that brought it, for example xcom

You realize this post is over 4 years old, right?

It's almost 5 years old now. And thanks for this thread, I have a clue now.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
