I have personally seen programs use 100% of 128 threads on windows 10 64bit, where is this 32 thread limit per app come from? If that is true, it would be because avid has limited the amount of threads it can use. Is there any truth to that, or if I build a 88 thread xeon computer, will protools 2018 allow itself and plugins up to full 88 threads?

I am currently wanting to build a new PC for my studio and my current sig rig is not allowing me to run as many plugins & VI's as I would like and this post is making me wonder, should I go for 16-32 higher clock threads, or go for 2 Xeon E5-2699v4 for 88 threads for ultimate headroom (I plan to do some huge projects with high bitrate, track count and VI's)
