Well, ryzen 5000-family and threadripper 3000-family core count do not intersect(16v24). if you need more than 16 cores and dont mind spending twice as much per core, go with threadripper. otherwise, ryzen 5950x is an absolute beast when cooled properly and is only $480

Yeah I'm heavily leaning to a 5950x machine as well. But maybe I'll wait for the Ryzen 7000 lineup first. Thank you.
