Yeah, that’s exactly what I was trying to calculate: two 8700K vs one Threadripper… With the high memory prices it’s very important to understand how much memory I need though: should I calculate for example 4GB ‘per core’ (i.e. 64GB for the Threadripper and 32GB for the Intel) or does memory not make a big difference?
With my current i7 4771 (4 cores) my 24GB is always completely full when building lighting…
Any thoughts?
