UPDATE: I connected one of my Win10 drives, and booted from it. I checked the voltage. Even on a completely different version and installation of Windows, it still remains @ 1400mhz and 0.83v. Since this is a different installation, but the values remain the same, I'm thinking it could be the power supply. I ordered another so I can test it just to be sure. I may also clear CMOS as a last resort before having to remove everything to install the new power supply. Could this be it?
UPDATE: Well, I reinstalled Windows, and all six cores show up...running 1400mhz(x7multipier) on 0.83v This is insane! It won't budge. I changed it manually in bios, AMD overdrive, and a few other progs and it won't budge, But of course when i go to safe mode it runs 3500mhz but wont tell me the voltage...Any ideas?
I have just built a new rig and used one of my old SSDs from another for this one's boot drive,so I can save the money. The physical specs of the build are:
AMD FX-6300
ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z
PNY 8GB DDR3 1600mhz
240GB Adata SSD
I am reusing the Windows 7 Ultimate x64 currently on the drive. It's not OEM, so it should be a problem. The problem is that it is a six-core cpu, and everything on the computer knows it's a six-core cpu, but Windows 7 won't use them. I tested it with CPU-Z ( http://imgur.com/a/iM7Wd ) It says "six-core processor, but it shows 2 cores, 2 threads. Also the same with System setting with Task Manager( http://imgur.com/a/vQtAj ).The drivers in Device manager also have six drivers installed( http://imgur.com/a/rF7aB ). Also Safe mode recogizes the six cores. I can't find any drivers for the FX-6300 processor anywhere. The chipset drivers are up to date, and all cores are enabled in the bios. I have run Malwarebytes 3 premium, combofix, and Adwcleaner, all with no detections. I have even tried the unpark cores utility, still no luck. The only thing I can think of that I haven't tried is reinstalling Windows, which I really don't want to do. Any solutions?
