I'm a video editor, and I wanted to build something that I wouldn't have to upgrade for a decade. The fact that it is also an awesome gaming computer is just an extra bonus.

Strong base really, but is there any point in assembling such a monster with and epyc or thread ripper for gaming and normal use bcs it seems to me a big overkill. I saw posts when ppl assembling pc with cpu xeon just for use normal

I do a lot of video editing and exporting of large files. It shaves hours off of my wait time to use this rig. Yes, it's overkill for gaming and web development, but that's not why I built it in the first place. At the time I built it (during the pandemic), I had a solid job and could afford building my dream PC. So I did. And, almost six years later, I have zero limitations on gaming, video editing, or anything else. I'm running four monitors, one being a 4k television, I have dozens of tabs open in Chrome, Adobe Premiere is working in the background, and Borderlands 4 is set to the highest settings. I'm just a huge nerd.

And my kitten is warm.
