Xara pro, i5 vs i7 or Hyperthreading vs non Hyperthreading ?

i am now in the process upgrading my personal desktop from 6 year old amd fx 6300 to amd ryzen 7 2700x plus memory 64 gb dd4

i don't expect it to affect xara that much, but i am doing it to take full advantage of painter 2020, Photoshop cc which i will very soon no longer be able to do without, and just as importantly reduce animation render times

i went for the amd rather than intel i7 because the ryzen out performs on genuinely multicore tasks, as opposed to single core where the intel has the edge - plus the amd is cheaper and comes with a meaningful thermal solution (heatsink/fan)

if it does boost xara designer i'll report back
