Ryzen R7 1700

The best AMD has to offer. Can achieve the same results as the other x series by overclocking. Intel fan boys say this cpu can't play games well that is wrong by far. This cpu over clocked can handle anything you throw at it. 16 threads means you'll have the power to do anything and at less than half the price of intels why not? It may be around 10%-15%slower IPC but look at what you get. With 3200mhz ram it can easily match the 7700k performance in games and yes people play games at ultra settings not minimal! This processor is designed for 4k gaming. A production cpu like no other all at 65 watts tdp. The i7 7700k can't touch the multithreaded performance of this ryzen beast. 8 cores 16 threads. Hopefully Intel will learn from this. More cores is what consumers want and having a civil war with their own prices in the market is nonsensical. Buy this r7 and you won't regret it.Read full review
