How many cores does Fallout 4 use?
Fallout 4 can technically use up to 4 cores. But don't expect a massive boost from having more than that; the game doesn't fully utilize all the cores beyond 4. It's not so much about the quantity, but how it uses what it's got.

Only 1 or 2 cores will be heavily utilized by Fallout 4. It's kinda old school in its setup, so throwing in a high-end CPU with tons of cores won't make it magically smoother.
Fallout 4 mainly uses up to 4 cores. Anything beyond that is just for show, as the game won't effectively utilize them. Learned this the hard way by upgrading my rig just for Fallout 4. Spoiler: didn't notice a world of difference!
