It was a 1950x. I canceled the transcode after several hours and it only got though a couple minutes of 1080p video. I don't remember the exact times, it was about 5 years ago. I haven't bothered with AV1 since then.

Yeah, the first time I tried AV1 (on CPU) I also cancelled the transcode after 4 hours.

I was out for a few days, so I left the encode on. It was something stupid like over 50 hours for a 90 minute movie on a 5800X (this was on the slowest preset doe the AV1 encoder, since that's what always use for x264/x265).

I would imagine Threadripper 9000 performance is notably better than the the 1950X even if you get a 16 core CPU. Going for a 32 core CPU should roughly halve the timing even further.
