I know I've got a pretty niche use case here but hear me out. What's a CPU I can upgrade to, from a 1600AF, that'll halve software-rendering times for my videos?
I've been using Vegas Pro 13 for many years, ever since it came out I think. Unfortunately, recent NVIDIA cards are not compatible with Vegas Pro 13, so I've been without GPU accelerated rendering for 5~ years now. Yep, I'm rendering entirely on the CPU. The obvious solution would be to upgrade to a newer version of Vegas that doesn't suck, but it's only on Humble Bundle once or twice a year and piracy is a trojan minefield nowadays.
The Ryzen 1600AF is basically a rebranded 2600, ie a 2018 CPU. It's got 6 cores and 12 threads. How much faster should I expect rendering to be on something like a 5700x, which has 8 cores and 16 threads?
