Also I heard that an anonymous person also said the same thing, and that this person doesn't understand threads, if you happen to find someone that believes that multiple cores are useless for games, remind them that for the last decade games have been multithreaded, and that having multiple cores will reduces the cpu load by offloading background processors to the extra cores, and also that since multi-core processors have been around things like branch prediction have been offloaded to multiple cores, so tl;dr load up Morrowind (or any old game) and notice that it has a bunch of threads running across multiple cores.

Of course, you and I both know that all programs effectively run across multiple cores even if they are single threaded, and that the idea that games (of all things!) are single-threaded is just hilarious - if someone seriously believes that technology that has existed for more than 3 decades still isn't being used, then all you can do is laugh right?

Also if you see someone who thinks "more clocks = more power"... well, just point them to reddit, they'll fit right in

Sorry buddy but this is a fact.

Examples of games that are multithreaded AND run across multiple cores:
- Everything using the Source engine (since 2006): CS:GO, DOTA2, TF2, etc.
- Everything using the Unreal engine (since UE3): Bioshock Infinite, Borderlands, Goat Simulator, etc.
- Everything using the Unity engine (since creation afaik): Hearthstone, Kerbel, Rust, etc.
- Almost every other game and game engine made since 2005: You name it, odds are it runs multithreaded and multicore.

Sorry mate but you are straight up ignorant and your knowledge of hardware and software is stuck in the year 2000... Maybe this level of knowledge required to give advice on reddit (lol) but around here it's preferable to at least have some knowledge of this decade.
