Ive personally been looking into this one. And costco has 90 day return policy no questions asked, But its over your budget

Can be bought for ~$200

How do you feel about the 12 Core AMD Threadripper 1920X ?

I plan on starting from scratch and doing a full build So I have a bunch of people transcoding Both Audio & Video. Im the only one Direct playing. They will all be transcoding & some even pull surround sounds as well. So the users are family & friends some are using DSL others are using FIOS Gigabit. I currently have 200/50 Internet myself and never really have an issue too much unless everyone is on at the extact same moment. I do have 4K as well but I block that library from everyone other then myself. So starting literally from scratch on a build what would you suggest ?

I haven't built a PC in over 10 years. I currently have a 10 year old Desktop that I turned into my Plex Server. I have about 4-6 simultaneous streams going at the same time. I think its time to upgrade the computer as its lagging pretty bad not transcoding well anymore. Not sure if I need to focus on CPU or GPU, one over the other or focus on the equally. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Im not even sure where to start anymore.
