Yes I feel 7980x is much more snappy! I haven't tried with Corona yet, only the Benchmark. Yeah transferring with Star Link will take some time. 7000 series would probably be better for mobile than 3990x since it can be cooled better.
Just pulled the G.Skill 128GB kit out and replaced with 192GB kit. BIOS is set only at defaults, ram is only running at 4800. Even with that the system is fast, 34k with Corona. Once I set ram to 6400 and OC I can't wait to see the performance boost. I'm expecting 2x 3990x. But the 7980x machine is finishing out a job right now.
I would go just go with 7980x if you can, plus I think it cools better.
Once I get time to Benchmark the 3990x vs the 7980x I'll post some results.
