Carrara rendering, RYZEN Threadripper 2990WX 32 core, 64 thread. No need for GPU???

I'm just curious if anyone is using Carrara has one of these and wonder how fast CPU rendering times are compared to the Octane GPU rendering one. I'm planning a new PC build for next year once DDR5 memory and DDR5 supported TR motherboards are out.

I'm thinking with double the ram speed of DDR5 compared to DDR4 and with the 2990WX processor could make GPU rendering a thing of the past. Your thoughts?

Btw I believe AMD is developing a 64 core 128 thread processor to be released for the consumer PC market.

    @Jonstark is the Render farming expert I don’t know of any cashed up Carraraites myself if there are any they don’t post here cheeky

    @Argus1000 used someone else’s computer with loads of cores once

    actually searching Argus has a pretty spiffy PC himself

    I don't think that anyone here has tried Carrara using a Threadripper yet.  But it is getting tempting, with the current low prices and sales being offered for 2nd generation processors.  You can put together a pretty solid system for about a thousand (not with the 2990WX of course).
