Coming from virt-manager I'm used to setting threads as well as cores. So for my 3900x, I sometimes use 1 cpu, 12 cores, 2 threads.

However, there doesn't seem to be an option to do that in Proxmox.
 
no there is not, normally just use 1 cpu 24 cores. if you *really* need the threads (it should not make much difference), you can add custom qemu arguments to the 'args' part of qemu e.g.

Code:
qm set 100 --args '-smp 1,cores=12,threads=2,maxcpus=24'
