After effects very much cares about single thread performance even if adding more cores does add some performance benefits. I will say the 5900x will possibly beat the 3950x by a fair margin. Won't make much of a difference for Blender use. GPU is more important for viewport and rendering performance.

MoGraph/VFX 5+ years After Effects is a layer based compositor and can generate 2D and very basic 3D graphics. If you want to create 3D spectrums look up the red giant plugins like Particular, or the plug-in stardust. It also has a 3D plugin called Element3D. Blender is primarily for 3D only and can work alongside after effects. 4 level 1
And the lite version is surprisingly robust. Blender is great for 3D modelling, and it’s free. But it doesn’t work directly in AE. A good potential workflow if you don’t want to pay for the full Cinema 4D - model in blender, then bring that model into cinema 4D …

Blender can do some compositing that would be tedious and awkward in After Effects such as depth testing (see the compositing for the impossible triangle). But After Effects has a much bigger library of configurable shaders you can slap on …

Blender is great for 3D modelling, and it’s free. But it doesn’t work directly in AE. A good potential workflow if you don’t want to pay for the full Cinema 4D - model in blender, then bring that model into cinema 4D lite or element as your interface with AE.
But After Effects has a much bigger library of configurable shaders you can slap on top, and good 2D masking and motion tracking tools. tl;dr: Any compositing for which you need depth information (e.g. camera DOF), Blender will probably work better. Otherwise (e.g. color grading) After Effects will probably work better.
