It wasn't until consumer 8 core / 16 thread chips started entering mainstream that I even started thinking about upgrading. And even then its generally meh with how much software is single thread bottlenecked. Meltdown and spectre didn't help things - after they were published I definitely intended to wait for architectures mitigating them before upgrading again. Heres hoping AMD can keep pushing the envelope this year. A consumer 10+ core chip would definitely have my interest. Not so much to necessarily buy myself, but to drop the floor of the high end even further.
