In about 2 months, you'll be able to get smoking deals on previous gen TR, so you won't need 3 grand.  I *almost* bought one, but I couldn't find anyone interested in my 3900X CPU / mobo. The previous gen 24 core is on sale right now for less than $1300CDN, ~$500CDN for a board. Still not cheap, but considering what you get, it's almost a steal.

You can get smoking deals now. The 12 core 1920x is around £250. However, the boards cost the same and then the RAM. So it's more like £700+
That is why I bought an ES for £130, a board for £140 and used my existing RAM. Sure it's a hair slower than the 1920x (about 8% stock) but it cost 1/3 the price.
I don't expect there to be cheap budget TR boards, but it's that and their insistence on using fast RAM that has stopped me jumping in.

Surprised we didn't talk about the fact that they are the first to quadruple the bandwidth between CPU and chipset. Went from PCI e 3.0x4 to PCIe 4.0 x 8. Allows for so much more devices to be attached and far more flexibility for storage or similar things.

I'll be testing that bandwidth if I take the plunge. I'm dying to get my hands on a full PCIE 16X NVME raid card, and tossing 4 2TB SSDs into an 8TB RAID0 array. Not that I *need* that, but when has this hobby ever been about NEED, LOL!

I have no idea how to even fill 2TB it's surprising how people fill them up so easily

This pricing doesn't bother me too much, as it's so far above what I need.
But its only a increase of $100 & $200 over last gen MSRP. Anyone remember Intel with the 6950x?!? Increasing the price by $750 over the 5960x MSRP.
