The 2950x refreshed is interesting. If it is 4.4ghz, they have the fastest chip comparable to all the intel hedt chips that stuggling with temps issue.

Price / performance is enough to beat Intel best (most expensive) HEDT chip

2 times to 3 times TDP of Coffee Lake, no thanks.

Intel 28-core TDP might be higher than AMD 32-core.
Interestingly enough, Intel states the maximum operating temperature of the 8180 at 205W TDP as 84C case temperature and 98C DTS, which sounds slightly higher than its standard settings for enterprise chips. It would mean that this new 28-core, if it comes out at 265W TDP, is likely to be a super high bin of the part. Of course, this will come with a higher cost.

I was using Slot1 and socket 771 SMP system in the past for complex computing and rendering, Retired both system long ago but kept the motherboard and processor in the storeroom.

For most SOHO system, SMP is no longer necessary with today powerful single processor. The TDP and heat was a big headache running SMP system. Now no longer engage in complex computing and 3D rendering. I shun system with high TDP, my key working PC in my office is running a 35w 2120T processor without graphic card. Never ever need to worry about system overheat whatsoever, peace of mind. :)

In this case even coffee lake TDP also high for your liking

I think depends on the usage. Plus, it is higher for sure, but when given the right load, it completes the task much faster and go into idle mode.

Then you should just consider getting a laptop. This is as low power as you can get since it can go as low as 4.5W.

If one don't need such a cpu, a cheap <45W cpu is more than enough. Why you need >150W? There are only 2 groups of people who will buy cpus with high TDP. First, because i need. Second, because i want.

I have 3 laptops (HP/Asus/Lenovo) for work desk/on-site editing/programming of the MCU and touch screen, none can replace the 35w 2120T HP desktop as I need a 24" 16:10 ratio display, LAN port for connecting the lasercut machine, RS232 and at least 4 USB ports for Arduino MCU/touch screen programming using Arduino IDE/VisualTFT.

Although I can hook up the laptop with the display and LAN port for the machine, but still short of USB ports, using USB-RS232 is not ideal for my operation and need an extra vacant USB port which is not available on any laptop.

I use what I need and comfortable with the 35w 2120T, not what I want. :)
