From here you can chose how many of the total cores you have you wish to use, but there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off specific cores, at least not through the OS. You might be able to do that through the motherboard BIOS (or equivalent). It will depend on whether that's an option or not.
Is there not any benchmark tools that will test individual cores to rate the performance of each one? I would certainly think that these days that would be possible as it would help identify if there is an under-performing core so you could route less CPU intensive processes though it and keep more intensive ones on the other cores as much as possible.
You can run Cinebench but you cant choose which core to run, just that you can run a single core benchmark.
It does nothing more then window game mode does for free. Bloatware.
@OP, there is no reason to disable cores for gaming benchmarking. Unused cores go automatically into an idle state to boost the remaining cores higher.
That the main feature of turbo boost compared to all core overclock.
If you really want to disable cores (that don't really do anything good) then you do it from within bios by overclocking per core not synced overclock.
Some board also have the option there to disable specific cores.
