  • I have 12 cpu cores. It is a 6 core processor and I have two of them. I can see them in BIOS. This processor doesn't support hyper-threading so 12 physical cores should to be detected. Apr 1, 2016 at 19:55

AMD's specs indicate that CPU is six cores and six threads, but you're seeing three cores with two threads each.

Combine that with what appears to be a dual-socket board and your total "CPU count" (4th line), and it does appear to be detecting them all, it's just not displaying the totals the way you expect.

  • You are correct. It effects my parallel programs which looks for physical cores rather than logical cores. Apr 1, 2016 at 19:58

According to the 4th line you have 12 CPU(s).

Maybe you are looking for this information:

cat /proc/cpuinfo
