I agree with hunter... i have no idea what you're talking about. can you explain where you are seeing this multicore enhancement? and also what cpu you're running wouldn't hurt either.

the context is in motherboard, I use asrock LGA 1150 with intel G3220 Haswell, when I enter BIOS, I found Multicore Enhancement and it disabled, so What is Multicore Enhancement ? is it dangerous ?

And 2 seconds of googling brought me to this article

Sparknotes:
Turbo boost is handled by the motherboard not the CPU, Multicore enhancement runs the CPU at the top turbo boost setting regardless of load level so it is just OCing the CPU but without needing an unlocked CPU. Since it is OCing, make sure you aren't running too hot with the stock cooler before you enable it as it will make your CPU run hotter.
