NEW EasyTune™ EasyTune™ 6 Core Boost allows you to unleash the performance from the hidden cores in the AMD processors

Step1: Choose “Tuner”  “Advance” mode  “Core Boost”. Then will show “Disabled” as default 2-core CPU setting. Step2: Choose “Enabled”. The system will reboot for updating BIOS of EC firmware and ready for unleash the hidden CPU cores.

NEW EasyTune™ EasyTune™ 6 Core Boost allows you to unleash the performance from the hidden cores in the AMD processors Step3: Choose CPU core of “Enabled” or “Disabled”  “Set” for saving the setting changes.

Now you are free to use the hidden CPU cores!! If you have experience system instability when Core Boost is enabled, please reboot the system and set “Load Optimized Defaults” in the BIOS setup for recovery.
