I have no need for that many cores, PCIe lanes or memory channels, so I have no interest in Threadripper.
I may consider doing a Ryzen build, though. Still not quite at my next upgrade cycle, though.

If I were to do a Threadripper build, I would feel compelled to go mATX & run dual RX Vega GPUs in CrossFire mode...?
That's my ultimate dream ...inside a Cerberus.

That makes three of us (but I'd have to sell off my current board+CPU. AND finally start testing water for programs in W10. :C )

EDIT: forgot the heatsink doesn't do TR4. oh crap

Note I said "If"...

My plans are more geared towards a Ryzen ITX build with a single RX Vega Nano (see sig below)...

I really don't have the need for that much horsepower...

hey, sorry to necro bump this but

anyone knows or tried to build a dc-atx threadripper build yet?
I mean, for science

because technically a 300w threadripper build is possible (with low profile wx cards for display)
