Is there an 8 core CPU in PC gaming?  No.

The majority of PC gaming computers are dual core with a few being quad core.  Having variable AI isn't as easy as having variable graphical detail.

As more and more people purchase quad core CPUs and as 6 and 8 core CPUs become the norm than you'll see PC gaming offer AI levels that differ from the console.  Until then, developers will develop for the lowest common denominator, which is a dual core processor. 

1.6GHz AMD 8-core is the rumour? That's weaker than a 3.3GHz dual-core CPU one might buy for a gaming PC.

You're mistaken if you expect PS4 or 720 to be stronger than an average recent budget-gaming PC.
