i coded my null nuke CMS that reinvented the whole internet all by myself, some soundcloud code is nothing, Vs cross server, cross OS, fully dynamic array's and modules and user BBcode, and everything it has, and the first to be unified mobile/desktop without needing multiple domains, first with dual layer cookie encryption, and first to be unhackable

New comp is compiling now, announced early April. It might even be paired with some mythical oft lamented other project.

How the f* would a processor help speed up ONE human's actual work? Or the lack of content to an sold article? Or is the AMD Ryzen processors so advanced that it uploads the samples connected to each product, that it's actually an AI, not just a chip? Seriously, is your brain a computer chip?
FFS you can run a website on a computer from 2001 as good as a computer with a AMD ryzen. It's not like HU's traffic is anything near Facebook or google.

for £500 you get a processor that is faster then intels £1000 6990k. all the seconds and minutes you save encoding audio and to spec blu-ray adds up to hours over a week

AMD are still to launch the vega graphics card in a few months, which will beat the titan X
God knows why I'm getting drawn into this, but a few things:
Firstly, you're comparing an overclocked CPU to a stock CPU. Ryzen struggles to get above 4.1Ghz, our 6950x is at 4.4Ghz across all cores. That's over 33% improvement from stock with all cores loaded. Also actual benchmarks on launch haven't shown the 6950x losing anything, just the 1800x standing toe to toe with the 6900x. Impressive, yet irrelevant here.
Secondly, this system was build at the start of 2016 and used throughout that year. Ryzen *just* came out. It would be moderately insane to throw away a still-faster workstation after 14 months just because there's a solid argument for price:performance in favour of Ryzen which launched this month. Even later this year, unless budget is no object, I'd likely recommend Ryzen (once matured a bit) over the new X299 platform *unless* you can afford the most expensive skylake-E. If AMD launch an HDET platform that may change, but it's all speculative at this point.
There's *no* evidence for vega, a year later, beating, or intending to beat, the Titan X or 1080ti in any actual workloads. Even on paper. It's likely to come *close*, perhaps. Again, not sure why we'd throw away a graphics card nearly a year old for something slower. Added to which, Nvidia are sitting on Volta.
I'm not convinced you should be recommending upgrades that are, at best, sidegrades. For a new build, I'm leaning towards recommending Ryzen with the slight proviso that the platform itself is immature. For workstation/content-creation price:performance it decimates Intel, at this point. Hard to say if that will remain the case.

plenty of evidence for vega
the whole architecture is for parallel computing and can handle 512 terrabytes of virtual memory, while openCL has a new bridge which can convert cuda code to be able to use all the stream processors to your liking, the same way cuda is used
while crossfire does'nt actually need a bridge like SLi which is'nt that new, parallel goes direct through the PCI-E slot, comes in handy if you want a massive amount of data being sent back and forth without a ribbon overheating and melting
