Along with IPC refinements and increase, the increased cache should help out a little with productivity/creation.

16 cores get me going. Unforunately I have nothing to use them. I was looking at the 3950x for a while just for the higher single (dual) core boost.
Why the 2080ti FE rather than something with better cooling / higher power limit?

heh, i've got a weird ignorance about all of that. i was into video rendering using (Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve) and some 3D rendering (Maya and the like), but haven't been for awhile... lets mask the ignorance and stupidity with the reason being "futureproofing" ... i got the Haswell-EP in 2017, so haven't been doing annual upgrades

I am going to guess around 40%.
The extra cores can be nice. Encoding and gaming at the same time, ect.

that's about nuts, i think you're spot on !!
i know someone with like a 9900 of some for sort and i saw exactly that difference between our 2080 Tis !!!!
It's as if there's some... use for computers outside of gaming.
would be a first.

Youre still getting an awesome CPU. I had planned on upgrading my first gen Ryzen sig machine and using it for another build, but life got in the way and I had to hold off. I'm still perfectly happy with the performance.
A little? You must be jesting
The future is literally going to be like a sandwich stacked 1TB l3 cache. Yes AMD and Intel have released white papers on it
Once they do that were looking at mining Jupiters moons for gold kinda power.
Zen + to zen2 doubled opcache and have exponentially increased performance as a product. I am encoding h265 at 2 to 3 times faster on my 3900x than my 2950x could.
Take the 3600 for example
You get 32mb of l3 cache for 200 bucks?????
Unfucking heard of in ever!
People.are brain dead kind of clueless as what kind of value they are getting with that much cache for 200 bucks.
