For an open source multithreaded CPU load with a handy benchmark mode, 
install povray, then run:

povray -benchmark

and compare the resulting time in seconds with:
https://openbenchmarking.org/showdown/pts/povray

(FX-8350 listed as 812 seconds.)

Your cpuinfo suggests that all 8 processors are detected. The "cpu 
cores" might refer to the four "modules" of this package, each with two 
integer and one floating point unit. POV-Ray is FPU intensive so expect 
quad-core performance.

Kind regards,
