amd threadripper 1950 or2920

i'm upgrading my whole system and think an amd looks best but which one?. i like the gigabyte auroa pro mb but also unsure which ram, 32gb, i can use. i have a zotac 1080 graphics card. will a 850 watt psu be enough?

a very mixed approach, a fair bit of video rendering, games and graphics design as a hobby

seasonic titanium psu

so from what i'm learnbing is wait for computex and see where it all leads. but at what point do i draw a line and do it, it feels like there will always be an upgrade just round thecorner.

so when does zen2 appear?

 

[rhodieG]

i think maybe i'll wait till computex and go from there. thank you

the new 3900x looks like a direct hit on tr2920

 

[rhodieG]

i do a fai bit of rendering but not majorily high level. i'm trying to future proof as much as possible by getting the best i can so it lasts a while

thank you all. i think my choice will be 3900x, i'll open a thread on motherboard section now
