Price. Limited value for money
Conclusion
Single Thread Perf Still Trails Intel
Limited overclocking headroom
Higher Peak Power Than Predecessors
Max Overclocked Frequencies Still Much Lower Than Intel
Needs a better cooler for overclocking
No value-oriented 400-series motherboards yet
Large performance deficit compared to a stock Ryzen 7 2700X
Still no overclocking headroom
Not super-new design
Single-threaded performance still lower than Intel's
Limited overclocking potential
Memory still a bit more problematic than on Intel
Lacks integrated graphics
Stability problems on the 300series boards. Overclocked and generational gains are limited for gamers. The R7 2700X's Wraith Prism cooler struggles during heavy OCs

AMD's first-generation "non-X" Ryzen processors were universally hailed as budget champions. That changes with the company's 2000-series CPUs, though. Its Ryzen 7 2700 is only $30 cheaper than the 2700X. Given a choice between them, we'd rather have t...

AMD has refreshed the Ryzen series by launching four new 2nd Generation Ryzen 2000-series processors today. AMD was able to make some adjustments to the original Zen design and successfully move from the 14nm to 12nm manufacturing process. These manufactu...
I admit that despite all of the testing I've been involved with the past few weeks, it feels like I rushed through Ryzen second-gen testing, and honestly, I'm surprised to be making the embargo lift. Beyond this point, I'm thinking I'll probably wait for...
