AMD is back in the mobile game. More than decent CPU performance output with four cores and eight threads. Vega 8 GPU is spectacular for integrated graphics in this thermal envelope
The Ryzen 5 1400 is a phenomenal value vs. competing quadcore chips. Strong productivity and minimum fps performance
Overclocks well
Runs more efficiently than the Core i57400
The editors didn't like
Questions remain over gaming performance
Some early adopter quirks linger
Overclocking not as strong as Kaby Lake
Low stock clock speeds mean lackluster performance for lightly threaded tasks
Looking back at how things played out over the course of this review, I have no doubt it will be one of the most hotly debated articles that I've written in the last few months, maybe even the last year. There's no denying that the Zen architecture has pr...
The Ryzen 5 CPUs are solid CPUs and are extremely competitive at their price points. However, if you are looking for a CPU to do it all at one price point, that probably isn't going to happen. At one price point, Intel might be better at gaming but worse...

For the desktop PC gamer, the higher TDP X models are still the go-to for gaming and general performance though. They're a little faster, and a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. However, if heat and power are a big concern to you, and t...

I can see the Ryzen 5 2600 and the 2600X fast becoming the most popular chips of the second generation Ryzen launch. They're fast, they're affordable, and they're easy to keep cool and overclock. I mean, if you're just doing a massive amount of rendering...
Which processor now offers the most bang of your buck varies per price segment. If you have a very small budget, in our opinion it is best to find an Intel Pentium G4560, which, given its higher availability, is less of a challenge than it was a few month...

Abstract: Battle has well and truly been joined in the consumer CPU space since AMD brought some much-needed mojo when it released a series of Ryzen chips. Over the course of the last three months we have seen the Ryzen 7 1800X, Ryzen 7 1700X, Ryzen 7 1700, and...

Incredible value for money, Quad-Core for Dual-Core (Intel) prices, AM4 Platform, Overclocks easily on B350 or X370, Ideal for HD gaming systems, Easy to manage thermals,
None, “Overall, the AMD Ryzen R5 1400 may not be the fastest chip in the world. However, its performance far exceeds what you would expect given its retail price. However, it’s by far one of the best budget chips we’ve seen in many years.”, AMD Ryzen R5 1
PricingThe AMD Ryzen R5 1400 Quad-Core processor is certainly affordable. Right now it's £158.99 on Amazon. However, we've seen some retailers listing is as low at £140, so shop around for the best deal! It may be the cheapest of the Ryzen bunch so far, b...
We've been watching with great interest how AMD's extensive range of Ryzen CPUs would sit not just against Intel's offerings, but against each other too. Things feel quite crowded around the £200 mark and there are significant differences too with Precisi...
