amazon.co.uk/gp/…=22 best offer atm- AuthorYou might be able to make that build for that budget.
Roughly the cpu is 300, motherboard is 300, ram about 100, OS maybe 50, ssd 50, hard drive 50, psu 50, and then you'll need a graphics card. If you could stretch the budget a little you could get a decent graphics card
However you could drop to a ryzen 7 1800 and shave 300 off the cost of the cpu and motherboard and still have 16 threads of processing power.
Personally I'd go with the 1800 build. Unless you need the full power of 32 threads. 
AMD think its all about the cores, no its not !

Currently using this CPU, bought on eBay 10% discount (£337) and I thought I had a bargain, this is a steal, and the CPU is superb, ultra fast with everything I do - Hyper-V, Visual Studio, SQL server, all at the same time and it flies. This is a "creative" CPU which handles multi-threaded applications brilliantly, with occasional gaming!!
At this price, it's amazing! HOT!!
Good link to the mobo liamamacca!! My friend is after a mobo for his 1920X as well. Thanks

You should definitely have a look at DaVinci Resolve for video editing. It's free for the non studio edition and is a world class grade editor. It supports all three major platforms, Windows, macOS and Linux.
Of course, a month after I paid that much for 2700x.
Keep in mind that motherboards also start at about £280.- Author

Not owning ryzen parts but from my own research I believe you need quad channel ram, so 4x2gb or 4x4gb sticks of preferably 3000mhz ram for ryzen. Although saying that the specifications page says max supported speed is 2666mhz so might wanna check that one.
Also your gonna want a 5-600w psu, the higher efficiency the better. I prefer seasonic power supplies or EVGA. I think superflower also do good power supplies.
The cpu heatsink is not included, so you need one. The coolermaster hyper 212 seems to be best price/performance, however these threadripper processors run hot so perhaps a closed liquid cooler such as corsair H100 etc might be better. - Was going to get this over the 2700x then realised the motherboards are £200 more lol wat.
Have tried to price a system myself using the Amazon parts.

Probably went a bit overboard with the RAM. Great time to get in I think with the 20% Amaz offer. With TR the benefit mainly is being able to upgrade when the newer gen gets cheaper.deleted24841520/11/2018 06:24

This thing much better and cheaper than i9 processor. Gamer makers need to learn to take advantage of more cores. They're still stuck in the early 2000 when it comes to cpu.
The issue is games take advantage of higher clock speeds, and the more cores you have the higher the TDP, when you increase the clock speed... Hence why i9's at 5Ghz get hot hot hot, compared to a i7 7700k at 5ghz. (Obviously not forgetting the voltage increase)
I think the issue is CPU cooling technology/industry hasn't caught up to the advances in CPU's and is falling behind we have these massive 30+ core CPU's especially on server based systems but we don't have the adequate cooling to overclock them to a level which a gamer would take advantage without using non-sustainable methods such as Liquid Nitrogen/Phase Cooler.

Try using pcpartpicker.com.
You can input the CPU and it will show you compatible options and current pricing. It really helps to get an idea of how much your build will be with the parts chosen and what you can swap in/out to make a realistic build.
Thanks OP, just ordered one from OCUK, along with the Asrock Taichi X399 deal from Amazon! Can't wait, and good riddance to Intel with their price fixing and lazy refreshes!
I got it! Thank you!- Author

I have a budget of £800 - 1000 ATM, but I'm hoping to consistently make improvements along the way.

It's a totally different usage really. The TR is a work horse cpu, a real badass. The ryzen is more for gaming and occasional encoding.

Youve received good advice but you might be able to save another few quid. Its little know for some strange reason but if you have an old laptop or PC with a product key you can use this to install Win10. You dont have to buy a fresh copy. Just be mindful that it may supersede your existing version. You can then put that extra cash towards your RAM!
Good luck- PS also doesn't come with cooler/fan that will set you back £90+ as well for water cooling.

Yea I agree, not exactly for your average consumer, not sure when I would need all those threads, just for video encoding or 3D rendering I guess. But 2700X can do pretty good on that too, for even a professional.deleted183545419/11/2018 20:14

Honestly you're looking at the wrong CPU for those tasks. Even if you did all three of those at once you probably wouldn't use that many cores effectively. A Ryzen 2600x or a similarly priced I5 would be just as fast in a real world desktop scenario and cost half as many spondoolies.deleted10781420/11/2018 15:44

In addition to the AMD Ryzen Quadcore-, Hexacore- and Octacore CPUs for gamers and content creators (Ryzen 7 / 5 / 3), AMD offers an additional series of scalable server CPUs codenamed "Naples" bearing the retail name Ryzen Epyc which are also based on the "Zen" microarchitecture. The bridge between server-grade CPUs and processors for gamers and content creators is formed by AMD's Ryzen Threadripper. Endowed with relatively high clock-speeds, something that benefits many games and applications, and up to 16 cores with 32 threads for picture and video editing, Ryzen Threadripper represents a platform designed from the ground up for multi-tasking.
Threadripper provides a full 64 PCIe 3.0 lanes and offers support for gaming systems with two full high-end graphics cards as well as multiple NVMe PCIe SSDs. Furthermore at least 1 TB DDR4-RAM will be usable in ultra-fast Quad-Channel mode, supporting native clock-speeds of up to 2.666 MHz, thereby offering professional applications and server functions the requisite capacities in terms of memory. Depending on the motherboard, and with the help of overclocking, it is even possible for even higher memory frequencies to be used in order to raise the performance of the Ryzen Threadripper yet further.
