3.1.5 shows only 2 cores for Kaveri
Please take a look at the results: 576968 and 577262.
Especially note the cores amount in both.
Geekbench shows 2 (and uses 2) instead of 4.
Also Linux shows (and most probably uses) about 1GB less memory
than Windows (there is actually set in bios 7GB for system and 1GB
for graphics, but system should use all of it if needed).
Please investigate.

Hi Deresik,
Kaveri has an interesting design. Each core is paired with another core, and shares resources with this core. Since shared resources can affect performance if there are overused, most operating systems treat Kaveri processors as "dual-core quad-thread" rather than "quad-core". Geekbench is simply reporting what the operating system is reporting.
Geekbench is using all four cores in your system. If you examine the integer single-core and multi-core scores, you'll see the multi-core score is 3.5x higher than the single-core score.
Let me know if you have any other questions and I'd be happy to help out.
Best,
John
