    Thank you everyone for all of your replies and insight! ? It is great to hear that the 3900, or even 3600 would be a noticeable improvement and honestly I don’t even know if the 3950 was in budget or not, was just going to try and squeeze it in. The rest of the build so far Was looking like: Asrock x570 Taichi, Gskill Neo 64gb (2 of the 32gb 16x2 kits??), and maybe the corsair mp600 for a couple of the m.2 slots, probably just a gen 3 Samsung for slot 3... otherwise just looking for a good deal on the 2070/80 gpus. Seems like these cards don’t run too hot, so was going to use stock cooler for anything but the 3950, but for air cooling that ma620m from cooler master looked ok... anybody getting anything cool this season? @Skiiwee29 @mariushm @graberweg @Harry Voyager @SMBGUY @Jrasero @Otto_iii

    I use premiere pro, after effects and various AE plugins from red giant and video copilot. Also photoshop, and illustrator, and often several of or all of these at the same time. Looking to get 64gb of ram, 2070/80 super probably and some gen 4 name’s for software and cache.

    So, I’m a media professional really needing to finally upgrade my 3770k build to something in the high end but not quite tr4 range now that I can finally afford to. However, there are no 3950’s to be found today and I don’t know what to do in the unknown amount of time before they are actually in stock... please advise and thanks. john

    I’m in a very similar boat, getting ready to upgrade my whole system from the same cpu from 2012 and a gtx 760. You are going to want nvme, I suggest grabbing a 2nd or even 3rd gen ryzen cpu, 3600x for example, or 2700x even and get some of these modern enhancements. Granted pretty sure that photoshop still favors intel slightly, but Ryzen is no joke for the price. It will mean changing mobo and ram as well, but we will see huge gains from updating to 2019/2018 hardware.

    Many thanks! That list is exactly what I needed.

    @i_build_nanosuits@Metallus97@LinusTechTipsFanFromDarlo Thanks for the insight! As for budget, yeah, not necessarily looking/able to drop 1k on gpu right now, probably shopping in the $400-600 range tbh. Also, trying to make sense of the various options for x570 mobo's and the kinda ridiculous range of prices for those. What should I be looking for there? I know I will need many a drive installed, like a few nvme and many an hdd... up to 64bg of ram.

    Hey everyone, I am a multimedia professional looking to upgrade/build a decently beefy home workstation for After Effects, Premiere, Photoshop and to be honest... also D2. I am looking at the 3950x on x570 as the chipset/cpu, but I'm honestly not sure what to think about gpu's and their prices right now... With recent launches, rumors of new launches and black Friday around the corner, I'm quite frankly scared to buy anything for fear of it either dropping 30% in price or something 30% better coming out right after my return window. For perspective my current rig is an i7 3770k, gtx 760 4gb, and 32gb of ddr3, so... clearly I'm not keen to update every season. What are your thoughts? Current case is antec 1100, I have a 4k display and one 1080p, will likely get a 2nd 4k when I can.
