Multicore cpu support

Currently running vCenter 4.0 U2.  We have W2K3 and W2K8 Standard and Enterprise guests.  Confused over licensing and use of CPU sockets. cores and vCPUs.  Would like to change a Windows guest .vmx file to allow more cores to be available to certain gustes.  For example on a W2K8 R2 Std guest we were able to assign 8 vCPUs via vCenter.  We would like to use more if possible.  Each socket has 12 cores.  Can we change the guest config to use 12 instead of 8 vCPUs.  Would there be any performance improvment if this is possible.  Thx.
