Meh... for $600 US, I just picked up a used PC with dual Xeon E5-2690s (upgradable to V2s), 64GB RAM, 256GB SSD and 850W supply. That is 16C/32T that I can drop a decent video card into and OC it into near-Threadripper performance. I actually really wanted the Threadripper 2950X, but even without video card, could not make the numbers make sense, as even stripped way down it would have been an extra $1000-$1500... for an extra 20% more performance. There was a second one of those Xeons available at the same price, but I couldn't quite push myself to buy it, as then I would need another video card, monitor, etc.
