Question Is my setup overpowered for Unreal Engine 6 compile / C++ ?

[Hollander Lawn]

Can you tell me if my PC build idea is well suited for Unreal Engine 5 compile/ C++ based on the following:
CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7985WX 64 cores/ 128 threads
Motherboard: ASUS Pro TR5 motherboard
RAM: Kingston DDR5 4800MT/S 128GB (4x32GB)
GPU: 2x Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090
Primary SSD: Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
Secondary SSD: Crucial P3 Plus 4TB
SATA HDD: Seagate Ironwolf Pro 18TB 7200rpm HDD


other specs will be fined tuned after 17th November 2023 when AMD releases it's Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7000 series processors. Can you tell me, is it overpowered for Unreal Engine 6 game development / C++ and please state your reason(s). Please be my patreon.

There's no such thing as "overpowered"

There is also no such thing as Unreal Engine 6. UE 5 is the current version available. UE6 is likely a long ways out. So we would need a time machine to answer this question.

Might want to stick to one thread...instead of spamming the forums with the same question.

The Threadripper Pro had an 8 channel memory controller. 8x16GB DIMMs will provide more performance.
Not sure what power supplies you would have to have for dual 4090s and a TR Pro CPU. Also not sure how you will cool this rig.
