Sorry if this is a dumb question. My current gaming setup is a Intel I7-4790k, 32Gb ram and a RTX 2080 Super. I came across a AMD Threadripper 1920x, mobo, 64Gb ram for free basically.
Is that worth the time/effort to swap over? It seems to me it would be, but when I search around for info I get conflicting opinions. So any input/insight is appreciated.
Edit: Thank y’all very much! I think I was overthinking single threaded performance.
Another trick to keep in your arsenal if you need more ports is to get a very high-speed USB adapter and split it using a hub. E.g. 20 or 40Gbps port split via 4/7-port hub still gives you 3-10Gbps per port. Note that over 5Gbps cable quality starts to really matter.
