You need to access the BIOS settings to achieve this, it seems the Asrock BIOS gives a clear indication such as "Core Unlocker." The CPU might not run smoothly if the 4th core is unlocked. I had an x3 Rana configuration using an Asrock board with that CPU and it wasn't stable when the core was unlocked.

they secured it because it didn't work on four cores, so they went with three cores instead.
