Comparing TR 3960x and R9 3950x for a new PC build – which offers better value? The goal is to determine if TR 3960x provides more worth for the investment.

You're asking about system requirements: compiling, parallel programming, RAM needs (128GB+ recommended, up to 256GB), and PCIe lanes.

The PRT platform provides additional features beyond just extra cores. The extra PCIe lanes and connectivity options require careful consideration before deciding on them.
