You must run a bunch of stuff, I imagine.
But yeah, a Threadripper with 96 cores runs at 11k+ USD where I live. There are cheaper ones, like half of that. But that's still no joke. 5k is still more than I paid for my entire new beefy computer with a 9950X3D, 9070 XT, 64 GB DDR5, 2 TB 9100 Pro SSD, and a 24 TB HDD, plus a very high-end motherboard.
All that, cheaper than a single Threadripper. 😅
Yeah also with Ryzen you quickly run in to PCIe lane limits. 2 GPUs a fiber nic and say 1 HBA and your over the limit
