I see what you are saying, it is giving you all the information
about all the cpus both real and logical.  That's more data than
you can handle.  In this particular method of recalling the data
from lshw, you get 10 lines every time cpu is mentioned.
You have a 64-bit, x68-64, cpu at 4GHz with a 100MHz clock.  Of
course, it starts telling you about your motherboard, but that
you don't need.
Everything you need to know, and more, about the cpu is listed right
there.  It is just in a format you don't understand.  As for a nice
GUI window to show all the details, there used to be one, but I
don't see it now.
Good luck!

Tom
