You do only have 4 cores. While some programs may display 8 cores, that's 8
logical cores.
Your CPU has Hyperthreading, which is a form of multithreading within the
processor core. Each real core has 2 HT cores, which results in the 8 logical
cores.
The only thing we do lack I guess is displaying the load on the logical cores
rather than the physical ones; temperature and such are impossible to get,
since they don't really exist.
If the above is still unclear to you, you should check out some articles, like
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthreading for example :)
