I have wondering, should dedicated game server like SRCDS run with "game CPU" rather than those very expensive server processors which handle again more like SQL and else etc. ?

Is it better use CPU which have better single core performance, like i7-8700K ??
Just asking.

Yes, single core performance is key.

very good point.
if you need to run N game servers, you have to have N+1 processor cores on your dedicated server, that extra core beeing for the OS.

I run all my servers off an 8700k, best CPU on the market for CS:GO really just power consumption is a bitch.
