Ok guys.
Might be time to leave your abacus behind.
You can finally at a small computing unit for a decent price.
Mod Note: Only orders with full system builds will be processed.

op is a bit stupid.
sorry for the noob question, but what does that mean? Do you need to add the rest of the components like mobo, ram, hdd to the shopping cart and buy them from Umart?
Thanks
$1172.15 if you have eBay Plus

Cheaper and you don't have to order a full system.
Assuming you can live without PCIe 4, slightly lower clock and "RAM compatibility" (but gain CPU PCIe lanes) Threadripper 1 is a lot cheaper for the same core count.
isn't tr mobo's more expensive?
Haven't really looked at specs of thread ripper.
Looking at upgrading 3900x—>3950x
Can't see the point of upgrading, you won't feel the difference unless you are doing video rendering or other CPU heavy stuff.

@Jenny Death: Lol username checks out :P
The 1950X has much lower performance compared to the 3950X
There's more to a CPU than threadcount and frequency. The iops on this will destroy threadripper 1.
If you need more RAM then Threadripper is the only choice. Even with the largest available expensive 32GB sticks you can only put 128GB on any Ryzen motherboard.
Plus the difference in efficiencies between the 14nm 1st gen Ryzen part and the newer 7nm part means you get more processing power from less actual power.
Also for video encoding it's a huge step. Before AMD were well behind now the new CPUs beat Intel with HEVC thanks to them finally putting in proper AVX compatibility. But still not enough difference for the amount of cores and power AMD has. One thing they need to improve on for high end CPUs.
