that's not very informative

 

can you tell us what program does he use to measure that

and what is the question?

what do you mean by active ? Because most of the time my 6800K don't gives a shit about what i do.

Unless i am playing MEA or doing video encoding , most threads of the cpu are sleeping.

 

 

if core are "missing" just active them all in CPU configuration into the Bios.

IDK what he means but he tried overclocking and manged to disable a core

Just active all cores into CPU configuration in the BIOS.

 

Good luck for the Overclock i stoped at 4,2Ghz , was bored to try a 4,4 stable with a decent Vcore.

There are a few things your friend can try / check.

 

Within the Windows 10 Operating System itself

• Navigate to the 'System Configuration' settings
• Click on the "Boot" tab, and click on the "Advanced options..." button
• Make the the "Number of processors" box is unchecked

 

 

Within the motherboard UEFI BIOS

* Keep in mind, BIOS menus will vary between manufacturers and motherboard models.

** The pictures are from my ASUS X99 Deluxe II, paired with a i7-6800K

 

• Navigate to the section where you can see the "Active Processor Cores" menu, and click on it
• Make sure all 6 cores are set to "Enabled"
• If all else fails, you can try the "Load Optimized Defaults" function
