Hey, I see. You're trying to figure out why your 10980xe is showing 8 cores instead of the expected 18 and has a misleading description of Skylake X. It might be due to outdated BIOS settings or driver conflicts. Check the CPU model in the BIOS, ensure it's set to the correct architecture, and verify that no conflicting drivers are causing misreporting.

Have you verified the BIOS settings to confirm all cores are activated?

After reading your message, I reset the system and entered BIOS. I changed the setting from auto to all active cores. Now in tools like Task Manager, it shows 18 cores. It still confuses me about why Skylake appears sometimes, but otherwise everything looks fine. Thanks!

Interesting fact about Auto mode utilizing only 8 cores. I expected it to leverage all 18 cores. It seems Skylake-X CPUs like the X299 7980XE were initially labeled as X299, while the 10980XE would be Cascade Lake-X. Your CPU-Z data appears accurate and could be related to BIOS reporting behavior.
