But.... I get oh so much delight out of seeing a screenful of workers when I run prime95 *cackles delightedly*
Or, if you want to play 2 or 3 video games.

I ditch 5950 and go for thread-ripper pro 3975. Reason the ryzen 9 5950x support only 24 pcie lanes. To take full benefit of pcie gen 4 with sli dual cards kingpin and raid 10 mnve. I need at least 48 pcie lanes or more.
So i sold my 5950x upgrade to threadripper pro.
If you dont need more than 18 pcie lanes then the 5950x is very good.
However in Adobe Lightroom performance increase so small I can't tell using 3800c14 ram Average 10,000 picture bulk export still takes hours with video mixed in. All in all if only gaming I'd buy a 5800x and 3070rtx any higher is diminishing returns very quickly. Also don't recommend full custom water loop. $800 for cpu and ram to be cooled with maybe 150hz extra over a h115i. Lessons learned 🤣
