Btw, when pio runs, how many cores does it use? Just wondering will the sim be finished faster with CPU which has more cores or the one that has faster cores..
In general it's number of physical cores multiplied by the frequency. There is only a very slight performance penalty for having more cores (so 8 cores at 4Ghz are going to be only slightly faster than 16 cores at 2Ghz).
Please take into account that a pro version can only use 16 threads.

I wanted to rebuild this PC right now but it would cost like more than 3k to do this at the moment
A lot of depends on your location and deals you can get. In general hardware is very expensive in Europe (because of VAT, shipping, labor cost) and way cheaper in US and other non-VAT countries.

If I upgrade could I run pro on my laptop for now and then build the PC and still use it for both computers?
Yes, it's not a problem. You can move Pio licenses within reasonable limits for purposes like new computers, long travelling and some experimentation. It's also always possible to get the license back if it gets stuck for any reason (stolen/damaged computer, wiping the hard drive etc.). An edge license can be moved from computer to computer without any limits (which is useful when using cloud instances for example).

Might it be the problem that I used comma instead dot?
Yes, we don't accept a comma as decimal separator.

(But still. why it would be exploitable to 2.8 and 3.9 then.. random?)
I think 0,5 will be read as 5 (a comma is just a visual separator), it should be an error, we will add an error check at some point.
Make sure you understand a distinction between exploitable in chips and in % of the pot as well.
