So I have a Ryzen 1600 and in the Task Manager and CPU-Z it shows that there are 3 cores and 6 threads while there should be 6 cores and 12 threads. Any idea why that's happening. I was noticing that my CPU was going almost on full load when playing games while in the past it wasn't..

Hi,

Open a command prompt (right click and run as administrator) and type bcdedit
check your numproc value. Is it 6?
if it is 6 then type
bcdedit /deletevaue numproc
into the command prompt to delete the unnecessary limitation.
