Solution
First check BIOS to confirm 8 cores are detected and settings are appropriate. If they are, confirm Windows has detected the 8350's cores using MSconfig

Search bar/Run > MSconfig> Boot > Advanced > Number of processors > Try to select 8

Solution
Device Manager, Processors: Uninstall all processors (probably the old one) and reboot.
