You shouldn't need coreinfo. Run the following Powershell command:
(Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Processor).Caption
The result will be a processor ID string like:
Intel64 Family 6 Model 94 Stepping 3
The AVX2 features were introduced in the [Haswell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haswell_(microarchitecture)) family of chips, which I believe will show up as family 6, model 195. Models older than that can use the non-AVX2 build.
Since this feature support information isn't something that will change over time, you can also manually determine which node supports the feature and hard-code a list of which nodes should use which build.
