Only using 12 threads on my 16 thread 5700X3D

Hello, Battlefield 6 is only using 12 threads on my 16 thread Processor (5700X3D). In the performance overlay it says:

CPU cores: 16      Job threads: 12

It also looks like this in the task manager when viewing all cores. I am running through the EA play App. How can I fix this?

    I fixed it by switching to Steam. For everyone having performance problems using the EA app, try switching to Steam. I double checked, and the settings are all the same, but it runs about 15-25% better. Maybe its tthe EA overlay messing with the performance? I tried to turn it off in EA play, but it was still active in the game.

    The problem is ovverall CPU utilization is still about 75%, beacuse it only uses 12 of the 16 Threads. Is this by desgin or a Bug?
