Blender seems like it should be pretty close to embarrassingly parallel. I wonder how much of the <100% scaling is due to clock speed, and how much is due to memory bandwidth limitation? 4 memory channels for 64 cores is twice as tight as even the 7950X.
Eyeballing the graphs, it looks like ~4 GHz vs ~4.6 GHz average, which…
4000*64 / (4600*32) = 1.739
Assuming a memory bound performance loss of x, we can solve
