If I needed 16 cores sure, but under most windows apps it's a big HELL NO.

If you need more pci express you’d get this chip. Hell if I had half a reason to buy this I would. This is also an amazing chip for VM consolidation or any density play.

Plus it looks like it supports ECC (unbuffered).

It makes a fantastic cryptocurrency miner for CPU aligned algorithms.

Too bad the motherboards are also very expensive as well.

hopefully they actually deliver it

It's Newegg. They are completely reliable for getting a purchase to you.

Now trying to return something.. or getting Newegg to even price match themselves - that's a different story.

Amazon is now the same price. So much for an 8hr sale https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Threadripper-32-thread-Processor-YD195XA8AEWOF/dp/B074CBH3R4/

Amazon charges sales tax if they have a warehouse in your state. They have one in Florida so i pay sales tax on anything sold by Amazon but not by their parties. For computer stuff i usually stick to Newegg to avoid the sales tax

Give it time. The next gen The Rome CPU is supposed to be out in 2018.
