Hi everyone, this is my first post and I'm looking for some advice.
I'm in need of a server, I have a small business and I been looking for a while, and I have some questions about this server I pretend to build.
First of all, I want you to know how I'm going to use it and why:
-Python coding with large files.
-Video editing.
-3d rendering.
-The server will be up for no more than three to six hours.
-Budget it's not a problem, between the three solutions that I find.

I have seen three main solutions for this:
-e5 2699 v4 * 2 on a Chinese dual motherboard.
-Amd Threadripper 1920.
-Epyc 7401p on a dual cpu motherboard Ultra Micro

Wich system will be the best for my needs? I found a lot of benchmarks on the Xeon and the threadripper, but not much on the epyc.

Any advice will be welcome.

Thanks.

It sounds like you are describing a workstation, not a server.

Not sure what you're going for here, but just fyi the 'p' variant cpus can only be used in a single-cpu configuration.
