Barside seems to be the only person in this thread, who has any clue about this basic subject. Yes, he is right. FM will utilize a huge amount of cores, when it is processing the matches in full detail, if you are not simulating in full depth the games that are outside of the leagues/cup you are in, the FM will not use all of your cores, because the rest of the things that require the processing (not matches in full detail) are done in most cases by single core. In a save, where all leagues are set to full detail, the Threadrippers will outperform obsolete i5's and i7's greatly with their big amount of cores. If someone really enjoys playing as realistic save as possible, the bigger amount of cores seems to be a nobrainer here, as it will considerably speed up the game.
Also, that test is biased toward the processors of high clock & low amount of cores profile, as the test is not set to simulate in full detail all loaded there leagues, which Barside already said.
How many CPU cores can be used?
