It is just showing so, actually there are two cores and both of them are working fine. Fire up Activity Monitor and check it out;-) only reading related, no big deal at all.

it's easy to patch the Activity Monitor for AMD: Make a backup of it, open the package contents and go into Contents/Resources/<yourlanguage>.lproj. Open 'Localizable.strings' with TextEdit and search for 'Intel'. You'll find two occurences:

/* Name of intel architecture */
"Intel" = "Intel"

The second part is for 64bit. Now replace the lines that it looks like this:

"Intel" = " AMD"

Use two spaces before the AMD, it looks better. Here's an example:

But I didn't found the place in the Finder yet.

If you launch Activity Monitor you will see that both cores are working (you should see 2 processor bars). This same problem appeared for some in the 9.2.2 kernel and is merely System Profiler misreporting the number of cores. Don't worry they are both still working.
