Have decided I'm not getting a threadripper. Prob only want to spend 2k tops upgrading bits this year. I'll upgrade mobo to that proart one, new cpu - maybe 8950x this summer?

Then maybe a 5090 next year.

Would consider looking into under desk hanging storage this year, as nice as the proart case is. Or maybe even rack mounting in a 4u case but that may require a shelf upgrade. Not impossible.

Beware that most high-end consumer GPUs won't fit in 4U chassis. When building a couple of 4090-based 4U servers, I spent ages finding the smallest one, then had to modify it to fit. It also needed a custom angled 12VHPWR power adapter.
