your advice is 1 CPU with 2 cores?
or 2CPU with 2 cores ?

2CPU with 1 cores.
Check the following KB article VMware Knowledge Base
If you have VC, Inventory Service, SSO, web client and DB on the same machine and you have 3 hosts and 60 VMs in inventory then recommended hw is
2 vCPUs
12 Gb RAM as minimum. 16 is better (also ensure that you have corret JVM heap size according to the size of your infra)
60 Gb HDD
Also if you use MS SQL make sure that you limited it by RAM.
