Ryzen 5 1600 only showing 2 cores and 4 logical processors.

Hey guys. I recently bought a ryzen 1600 for my system and i looked on task manager and it only says i have 2 cores and 4 logical processors. Keep in mind this was even before i got Ryzen Master. I've seen other youtubers on task manager with 6 cores and 12 logical processors and I'd like to know how to get this. I've looked on the BIOS and I can't seem to change my core count and I've done msconfig on windows 10 and i have only found that it JUST displays 4 cores and nothing higher.

Also if it helps, these are my specs:

AMD Ryzen 1600

Asus ROG B350-F Motherboard

Hyperx Fury 8gb DDR4

GTX 1050ti

Corsair CX550pastedImage_0.png

miyutori, the most important thing is to have a fresh copy of W10 installed on your system.  I'm guessing that you have a old left over copy of windows.  If so, then format your C disk and installed a fresh copy DLed from MS, Media Creation site.  Enjoy, John.
