Review: AMD is smashing it with Ryzen. Worth the $$$ for sure, no doubt. - Been using the last 4 gens of AMD in a DAW/gaming rig. AMD has always been underrated and a good value imo. Sure, they didn't hit benchmarks like the top Intel stuff especially for single core butt I have never really had an issue with them in a DAW using Cubase. For gaming they also seemed fine even if they didn't hit the top FPS like an intel. Upgraded from FX 8350. R7 1700 destroys it all around, its not even close. Well..... this new Ryzen gen smashes everything imo. The studio DAW has dual Xeon, I don't see any difference using Cubase with the Ryzen 1700. Zero latency, zero lag/stutter, no issues with 24-32 tracks all loaded with plugins, 8-10 fx channels with plugins, time based phase align on drum channels etc etc... I haven't needed to bounce down/freeze FX heavy tracks or anything like that. Every thing loaded, everything super sampled including a pre-master channel. So.... for $300 I think you will have a hard time beating this, at least until the Threadripper comes out. I didn't see a need to get the 1700x or 1800x but if you want a built in stable overclock then go for it. I'm running the 1700 stock with an Corsair h115i instead of the Wraith Spire. Idle temps are 28-30c.... it stays frosty on water cooled. Before I got the AM4 adapter I used the Wraith for a few days and idle temps were 15-20c higher, seriously. It seems to want to idle around 45-48c with the stock cooler. I don't think it really matters much but if you do want to overclock I would suggest getting a water cooler, you can find Corsair refurbs cheap if you look around. For gaming, I haven't got a chance to play anything super intense. I was playing Pillars of Eternity maxed and it was fine locked at 60fps with rx580 but that game is not resource intensive graphically. It didn't seem to really do anything at all to the CPU either, it was perfectly fine. I'd imagine that this can handle pretty much any game, especially as they continue to update etc. I played new Doom in dx12 and it was like 200fps or something lol. If you are playing above 1080p I would imagine the Ryzen processors are awesome but I can't say. TLDR: No other $300 cpu is going to come close to this one, period. If you are doing CPU intensive things like a DAW or video editing system this is way better than the i7 7700k imo and it is $50 cheaper. For $500 or so you can completely upgrade. r71700 w/ MSI tomahawk Arctic and Corsair 16g 3200.
Review: I loved the RGB fan - Upgraded from a 8320 which didn't take to any overclock over 4.3ghz, even when throwing well over 1.5 volts at it. The 8320 was getting sluggist, and bottlenecked my rx 480 in most cpu-intensive games. Aside from the rocky launch, upgrading to this was a night-and-day difference. When overclocked, this chip is held back by my 480, and during heavy gaming, only sips 40-50 watts of power according to the newest version od HWMonitor. When unzipping files, usage sits at under 10%, and the whole thing is bottlenecked by my hard drive's read speed, instead of the cpu. I'm no content creator, so I've yet to find any everyday workload that will bring the CPU-usage above 20% or so. The stock cooler is really quite impressive. It's bulky, with a huge chunk of copper in the center right on top of the CPU. It kept my chip under 70 degrees, even at 3.7ghz. I loved the RGB fan, which is nice to show off if you have a windowed case like me. To me it's almost funny how good this STOCK cooler is, because if THIS high-quality cooler is what just comes in the box for an AMD processor, it makes it look like Intel hates you by comparison, which isn't too far from the truth. I got it overclocked to 3.7ghz without touching voltage (stock 1.185v). it hit 3.8ghz at 1.275v, which had the pleasant side-effect of making my 3200mhz ram stable at 2933mhz (it WOULD work at 3200mhz, but would take a few restarts to post, so I just left it at 2933 for stability's sake). However I wasn't able to get my chip 24/7 stable at 3.9ghz as it wanted at least 1.37 volts, which made it run much too hot for my cooler (a Cooler Master Hyper T4). From what I've heard, Ryzen seems to hit a wall at about 4ghz, so I'm pretty satisfied with 3.8ghz. I'm sitting at R7 1800x performance at almost half the price, which is fine by me. Even at 3.8ghz, Ryzen wipes the floor with all but the highest end Skylake and Kaby Lake chips, and comes biting at the heels of the 6900k. Which is unbelievable considering Ryzen's low price tag. As far as the problems go, there are really only two main ones. It's already been a month or so, and it doesn't look like RAM speeds will be going up for Ryzen any time soon. At least not with a simple BIOS update. You should still keep your BIOS up to date, but I think the RAM speed problem might run deeper than the BIOS. Either way, with my few hours of overclocking, I've managed to get 2933mhz RAM, which is about where speeds should have been to begin with, so my experience hasn't changed much. The second problem stems from Ryzen's design. These 8-core chips are, in very simple terms, two quad-core 'core complexes' stuck together. And if reports are to be believed, these two complexes have problems communicating between one another, so if two co-dependant threads are stuck by windows on separate complexes, performance takes a rather large hit. I personally haven't had any noticeable problems with this, but if it IS true, then I'd have to wag my finger at AMD for having such a fundamental flaw in the architecture. I would list the gaming performance as a problem, but nobody buys a $350+ processor just to game at 1080p on low settings, and this CPU is far from bottlenecking my RX 480, even with it's 1400mhz overclock. So this chip still gets a big thumbs-up from me in gaming. Overall, I think AMD has really hit it out of the park with Ryzen. While it may fall behind Intel's Skylake and Kaby Lake in single-threaded performance, it's no Bulldozer, and can keep up well where it counts.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by J***Z on June 18, 2018*

Llevo ya un mes con este procesador ya que lo adquirí en HotSale por menos de 5000 pesos y a MSI, Tenia en la mira este procesador desde hace meses y aprovechando un cupón lo conseguí a un muy buen precio, estuve indesicio si comprar este o el 1700x (3.4 Ghz de stock), Me decí por este ya que incluye un muy buen Cooler con RGB, el procesador por si solo con el software de Ryzen Master trabaja a 3.2 Ghz casi siempre aún sin hacer OC. Vivo en el norte del país donde la tempreatura de ambiente la mayoria del año es de entre 30 y 45 y la temperatura del procesador no sobrepasa los 49 grados (aún sin encender el Aire Acondicionado en la recamara). La principal función que le doy a este procesador es para hacer render de videos a 1080p con Sony Vegas y me sorprende que pueda seguir escuchando música, ver videos en youtube y editar documentos al mismo tiempo sin notar una baja en el rendimiento. Para Gaming no tengo ninguna queja; juegos como PUBGs se ven y se sienten suaves a 1080p 60fps. He probado hacer streaming y jugar al mismo tiempo (Fornite, Doom, Destiny 2, PUBGs, WoW, Ovewatch) sin perder calidad en juego o stream aún cuando solo tengo un módulo de RAM de 8Gb a 2100Mhz. Lo tengo con una MotherBoard MSI B350 ya que no siento la necesidad de hacer un OC muy extremo. El paquete llegó en un dia y muy bien protegido dentro de una caja con envoltura de aire, caja del procesador sin golpes y con sus sellos intactos.
