Maybe $3200?

$1500 i would have bought a 3970x, but 2000 is a deal breaker for me. Umming and aaring about the CCC penalty on the 3960x or just dropping down to a 3950x. Honestly, a 3950x for the tr platform would be pretty ideal though.

I'd argue if you really need a Threadripper, you'll be making back the asking $$$ within a month or two. Otherwise, you're just using it wrong

Home lab, mostly running SCCM. I can use the cores, but tax can only offset so much, and it still needs to pull double duties as my daily driver.

"I can use the cores" != "I need the cores"
Everybody's commute would take a little less if we each had a Ferrari. That doesn't need we all need a Ferrari

If everyone could afford a Ferrari and speed limits were unlimited, people would use the Ferrarri and take the time benefit from it.

But your core analogy is a bit false, more aptly, time=money, and the time I could save with being able to dedicated more cores into my home lab isn't equivalent to the cost of the part.

Pretty surprised at people complaining about price of high end parts.

It's literally cutting edge tech, those thread ripper CPUs take stock out the server side which is more profitable, they are not a high volume sale. Hence high prices.

AMD has made sure the mainstream parts are affordable and competitive. The ultra high end of the market has always been crazy.

That's why back when I used to be a regular here I'd buy midrange parts and overclock the hell out of them. The only top end models I've owned are hd4890 because I bought it on here and a 4790k because it was in a laptop and that was awesome.

Yes, no matter whether we're talking CPUs, GPUs, displays or something else, there is always the mandatory share of posts complaining about "rip-off" because price doesn't scale linearly with performance. Nothing anyone can do about it.

Actually if you're rly doin money you buy epyc/xeon

Specially for longevity. 256/512GB RAM, dual socket and so on.

Though I would love to have one of these (if for no other reason that because I can) the cost of the combination of board and CPU will be most likely $2000-$3000 Canadian. If you are already on TR4 it can be difficult to think of buying a new board vs the $300-$500 you already spent on X399. The major benefits of TR40 are just like X570. WIFI 6 and PCI-E 4.0. The funny thing is WIFI 6 can be had for $50 Canadian and you could get an expansion (some X399 already came with one) card to get faster than PCI_E 4.0 speeds on RAID 0.

I bought AMD Ryzen 9 3950X last week, and set it up on my CPU , but since then my printer stopped working. Is that something related to this device? I even tried setting up the printer again with the below steps in the link, but still no luck. I need my printer working as before.

Could someone advice on this?
Thanks

You really should start a new thread in the proper forums, you're more likely to get help that way.
But no, changing the CPU will not cause the printer to stop working. If you decide to start a new thread, add details like: did you change the motherboard as well, does the new motherboard support wifi, did you (re)install the wifi drivers...

And welcome to TPU, but as a hint, refrain from including links in your posts until you get like a hundred posts or so under your belt. I know you meant well, but newcomers posting links are frowned upon (thank spammers for that).
