Gaming VM and over-provisioning cores?

I run proxmox on an i7 10700 8c/16t CPU. I have this idea that if I have a gaming VM, I shouldn't over-provision cores and even leave 2 for the host, but is that really the case. Can I somehow ensure VM is basically pinned to say half the cores, and the other half can be fought over by whatever other VMs I'm running and proxmox itself? Could this affect performance on the gaming VM?
