Well the consumer grade stuff generally has higher clocks so things may be faster. I think a lot of Devs have had the surprise that their laptop has higher single core performance than a server. I don't know to what extent but space is certainly a premium. For a unit of rack space you want to maximise the cores and memory. With a server grade multi socket CPU, you're also likely to pair it with at least 512gb of ram. Consumer CPUs have a much lower limit. Though Threadripper is a bit higher. There's also the availability side of things. How many CPUs can you get to populate your datacenter? Will it be easy to order 500 consumer CPUs if you're not a retailer? Intel/AMD do want to steer their enterprise customers to higher volume parts.
