At a more reasonable 10c per kWh that’s 1.8 cents per hour and 157$ a year assuming 100% useage 24/7 vs $1799 for the CPU. Hardly going to break the bank, real world costs vs another similar CPU and you might hit 100$ worth of electricity over a 5 year lifespan.
Hopefully the investments to solar and wind will pay themselves at some point and the price of energy plummet.
The 1950X (16-core) is now about 760€ here in Europe, and the upcoming 2950X (16-core too) seems to go to the same or a bit lower price point. Now the price of electricity is already a much larger percentage of the purchase price, but the convenience of cutting time out from the compilation might be worth it.
Of course with so many cores, it is a good idea to get 64 GB of RAM, which adds to the energy bill. A template-heavy C++ project will eat RAM for breakfast, `make -j8` and 16 GB will definitely swap.
IMO the base price is a much larger consideration as again you don't use 180W in non 100% use situations which is going to be 90+% of the time for personal coding use.
