What do you mean ? You can get the same core design in 4 core and 64 core part with ryzen for example - the difference is price and power.
Single core performance is critical and core count has rapidly diminishing returns for the majority of everyday tasks (Amdahl's law and all that).
When you have independent tasks that need to run massively parallel you are better off using a different architecture because you can get better value from simpler compute units.
