    Ryzen 9 3900x Only showing 8 logical cores


    In my old setups I would have already found the fix but this has me stumped.

    The only Windows 10 setting I know of that affects the number of processor cores in use is the one in the attached image. (Enter "msconfig" in the search or run window.) It's not something that would normally be turned on.Ryzen 9 3900x Only showing 8 logical cores-processors.png

    This what I get: Ryzen 9 3900x Only showing 8 logical cores-cou.png

    Aside from that, all that I would try is clearing the CMOS.

    Failing that, I'd guess that you have a defective motherboard or CPU.

    Best of luck.
