While a nice idea most software cannot even use 4 or 8 cores properly. That's one of the reason Intel CPUs are still king compared to AMD in desktop space. If you can use all of that cores AMD tries to cram in their CPUs you can get good performance for a good price, but the single-threaded performance is an absolute desaster at the moment (and the one thing AMD has focused most on for their next architecture, Zen), which is still what many workloads use.
