Post From: CPU: More Cores or Stronger Cores

Hi,
I am currently faced with using SC with zoom running an open call all through the day. I have seen that my systems overhead room of about 30% is now entirely taken up by zoom processing which can not be optimised to reduce any further.
I am looking at using the Amd Threadripper 330 which is a very pricey CPU and has 128 threads, but I would rather not spend this much.
There is the i9 10980xe which has 64 but is also expensive but more within budget for this required upgrade.
Is the line from SC engineering still it is more optimal to go for 2x smaller CPUs rather than either of the above CPUs?
If so, I would be interested in getting the best 2x CPUs for this task.
Currently Im using an i7 quad core i7700k 4.2ghz. with 64gb ram and SSDs with SC sitting alone on the partitioned D drive.
Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Best
Tim
