How to check if ryzen has turbo core enabled?

[roudy-s]

Hrllo i would like to know if my ryzen 5 1600x is using turbo cores or is it disabled and another thing i need to know is if all my cores are enabled how to check this and thank you my board is asus prime a320m-a.

That's all wrong MB for 1600x. Even if any "Turbo" works it will be severely limited by VRM power. There's no overclocking on that MB so XFR can hardly work.
Presuming Windows, you can check in Device manager if all cores are working. Ryzen Master can also show how many cores are working and what frequencies individual cores hit when under load. Other programs like HW Info https://www.hwinfo.com/download/ can also show that and much more.

Hey thank you for the reply my question is can i see the cores that are active and if the turbo boost is enabled i am not looking for overclocking now and another thing is that when i have bought the r5 1600x i saw that this board will work with it and it is the best that i can get here in my country and thank you.

Yes, those programs display frequencies of all cores in real time (while they are running of course), some or all cores (depending on load) should hit about 4GHz and you will now that turbo has kicked in.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from roudy-s : "How to check if my amd cpu is running at full speed and with turbo boost enabled and all cores enabled?"

Hello guys i need a very good help in this task i have an amd ryzen 5 1600x installed on a motherboard that is asus a320m-a and i have 16gb of hyperx fury ram slit to 2 sticks each is 8gb and i have a gtx 1070 i just want to know how to check and see that all my processor cores are activated and running and i need to know how to ch3ck if i have turbo boost enabled for the ryzen cpu it has a stock speed of 3.6 ghz and can boost to 4 ghz as i can see from the website but in bios under cpu configuration i only see the speed that is 3600mhz and max speed is 3600mhz so how to check if i have turbo boost is enabled and what it is called for thr amd processor i know it is intel turbo boost for intel but for amd i dont know and how to check if all cores are activated please help me and thank you so much. Btw i have switched from intel i7 880 to this ryzen 5 1600x and it is amazing so need your help to know that everything is fine and so far from what i know this board is not intended for overclocking even tho the cpu is unlocked for overclocking and i am not intrested in overclock i want to know these 2 things and thank you.

Similar to Intel turbo boost, AMD dynamically adjusts the core speed to give you a performance boost when the system requests the highest processor performance.

You could stress test your CPU and use an app like HWinfo64 to check the CPU performance.

If your heatsink keeps the 1600x cool enough you will see it hit up to 4.1GHz (XFR).

If you want to run @ 4.0 GHz and higher on all cores then you need to OC the CPU.

Thank you for your reply i have an msi core frozr l that keep the cpu cool so what should i do to overclock i dont know how and thank you.
