That's wrong because they exist also a thread option for processor (we don't use it currently).

full topology  = processor * cores * threads

(like for hyperthreading, you can have multiple threads by core)

Maybe will be better change the terms in the GUI of PVE, ie, for create or 
change the CPU configuration, instead say "Cores", must say "Threads of 
Processor", of this mode, all people will know that the threads also are 
considered when should choose the configuration more right.
