From what I remember from the benchmarks, Zen (and thus Threadripper) has some of its strongest results in 3d rendering. It's probably suited it for it even better than for encoding.
If you are not in hurry, you might want to wait till august, that's when the second generation should launch. And in second half of the year, Intel should have i9-7900X replacement too.
On the other hand, now you can get discounts on the current generation, although mainly in USA.
