Jack of All Trades
This is a niche CPU. For most applications, proceed to an Intel 8700K. The least expensive Threadripper has the same core/thread count as some of it's Ryzen cousins, and similar speeds. Why pay extra for this? Well, with TR architecture you get quad channel RAM, which means something for certain heavy applications, and you get 64 PCIe lanes, which is essential if you are running a RAID card and 2 GPUs, plus an M.2 drive and God only knows what else if you are building a TR desktop.What I found exceptionally good with this CPU is cooling. Running a constant 4.13 GHz overclock and a EVGA CLC 280 cooler it runs 46C to 48C under a heavy load. I rendered a 3D map from minecraft into a single 3d image and this took all 16 threads to 99%, and yet, the 1900X stayed cool and the fans on the radiator remained almost silent. Considering that my cooler is round and thus does not perfectly cover the CPU, this is amazing performance. I think this stems from the CPU being so huge, and having so many pins, so much space across which to deliver heat.People say "don't use this for games" because they know you can get more value with a consumer CPU. However, that does not mean that if you want this CPU for some other need, that it won't run games. It's a 4.1 GHz CPU. It can and does max out DOTA2, PUBG, World of Warships, DOOM 2016, and most interestingly: heavily modified Minecraft. I have a Forge/Optifine/SEUS setup and it's very impressive what an impact a CPU of this kind can do. I still say an 8700K would best it in all of these, right up until you run video encoding or 3d modeling.A word about SLI: I am running 2 GTX 970s which came from a scrapped computer and have had no issues with any software whatsoever. Many others have but in my case its been a boon to not have to buy a GPU, take advantage of the PCIe lanes in TR4, and still have excellent graphics performance.I give the 1900X 4/5 because for most purposes there are better bang for buck CPUs, but otherwise it's simply fantastic.EDIT: I have added photos of the Threadripper in action, which demonstrate how it uses threads, in a few interesting applications.

Es muy recomendable la refrigeración liquida, porque los ventiladores que este pequeño monstruo necesita para enfriarse por aire son bastante grandes y ruidosos
