I put together a "dream machine" for my sister to use for her growing food blog (she was using a Phenom II X6 for video editing before LOL. Lord knows she desperately needed an upgrade!) and I had the good fortune to get an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X for the build. The experience of working with the Threadripper 1950X and an ASRock X399 Taichi motherboard was fantastic. If you're interested in seeing the completed build, including a sweet video that prominently shows some of the core components, please check out the post and let me know your thoughts!
