Multithreaded application performance
Superb multithreaded performance
Comfortably outperforms the similarlypriced Core i76800K in multithreaded tasks
Up to 3.9GHz XFR and 3.8GHz Precision Boost frequencies aid singlethreaded performance
Can be overclocked close to Ryzen 7 1800X frequencie
The editors didn't like
Single-thread is good but not great
Gaming optimisations still needed
Limited overclocking potential
The 1700 may be better value for the enthusiast
None
Neutral
Memory performance still has a few bugs
But we expect these to be fixed with a BIOS update
Like all 8-core chips
It can get quite warm
So a powerful cooler is recommended
Still a little more expensive than the 7700K
“The Ryzen R7 1700
Lower gaming performance than Intel processors
Poorly optimized software ecosystem
Gaming performance is not best suited for ultrahigh refresh rates and trails Core i76800K and i77700K levels (outside of GPUlimited scenarios)
Some memory speed limitations – difficult pushing past 3.2GHz

The R3 2200G offers highly competitive performance at its price and, ultimately, really has no immediate competition. At $100, the CPU offers 78-85% of the performance of the R5 2400G at 58% of the price. Not bad at all. We can strongly recommend the R3 2...
Abstract: Its hard to believe considering we just finished up an Intel launch, but it is already time to check out Intel’s next launch. Kaby Lake was launched at the beginning of this year and the Mainstream lineup of CPUs is getting refreshed with Coffee Lake and Z370. This is the 8th generation of Intel’s Core processors going back to the original launch back in 2006...
So I think most people will admit that AMD has had a lot of wins this year with all of the Ryzen launches. As I found out in our 1700v7700K coverage the 7700K was still a great performing CPU, especially when looking at gaming performance. But with ju...
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and Threadripper 1920X are very impressive processors that did extremely well in content creation benchmarks that take advantage of having a 16-core, 32-thread processor in the system. The good news is a good number of app...
Having spent the past few months with the Ryzen 7 1800X as my production platform, I'd have to say that the Ryzen 7 series in general is very impressive and a solid offering from AMD. In my real world testing, the Ryzen 7 1800X was able to handle everythi...

Abstract: AMD's Ryzen launch was impressive in a number of ways, but behind the scenes it was unprecedented for us to get so many products in such a short span of time. We did standalone reviews of the Ryzen 7 1800X and Ryzen 5 1600X in successive issues and report...
The new AMD Ryzen architecture brought the California company back in the game when it comes to high-end processors. A more pleasant news is that the most powerful chips from the Ryzen lineup (Ryzen 7 1700, 1700X and 1800X) are much cheaper than their Int...

Remarkable multithreaded performance, More core and threads than the competition, 1600X on par with a stock i5 7600K in gaming, The full-featured AM4 platform, Excellent value for money
Questions remain over gaming performance, Some early adopter quirks linger, Overclocking not as strong as Kaby Lake
