Nope, total overkill. CS:GO runs fine on 4 cores. Anything more is just for bragging rights.

Absolutely, CS:GO can definitely utilize more than 4 cores! With updates and optimizations over the years, especially with the move towards CS2, the engine has been improved to better distribute workload across multiple cores. This means if you've got a fancy CPU with more cores, CS:GO can put them to good use, improving overall performance and making gameplay smoother!

From firsthand experience, upgrading from a quad-core to an eight-core CPU made a noticeable difference in CS:GO. Not only did the frame rates improve, but the game felt much smoother, especially in heavy action scenes. It's not just about the cores, though; faster cores can contribute to better performance as well.
