The editors didn't like
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

Abstract: Although the timeline doesn't quite work out for Ryzen to have affected the engineering-side of Intel's decision to release a 6-core desktop processor, it's evident AMD's pressure changed Intel's pricing and release schedule.With little desktop competit...

Whew. So what do our reams of data tell us about AMD's second-gen Ryzen CPUs? Let's try and sum it all up with our trusty bang-for-the-buck scatter plots, starting with gaming performance. As a CPU reviewer, I've got to stomach a hard truth: the vast maj...
Well after a week and a half of testing, retesting old CPUs, testing motherboard, photos, videos, editing, and of course writing here we are. Now that I've had some time to live with the Ryzen 2000 Series CPUs I first have to say that AMD continues to...
Just a year ago I was given the opportunity to present the initial roll-out of the AMD Ryzen 7 and 5 CPUs, followed up shortly by the Ryzen 3 CPUs. With those reviews, I presented to you a new line up of AMD processors that proved capable of competing wit...

Abstract: Today marks the initial start of AMD's pre-sale of 2nd Generation Ryzen processors. The full launch is set for April 19th, which is when reviews and performance numbers will be officially available, but today we are able to tell you a bit about the proces...
I would like to mention that both CPUs behaved nearly identical when it came to voltage requirements. Both CPUs were stable at 4.0 GHz and 1.3V set in BIOS, 4.2 GHz with 1.4V and 4.3 GHz with 1.45V set in BIOS. Anyone familiar with the Ryzen platform will...
I can assuredly say that the Ryzen 2700X is the best desktop CPU that AMD has ever built. AMD has gotten its power usage in line with the 12nm process that allows its new Precision Boost 2 technology to shine and shine incredibly brightly. There are a ton...

Abstract: With 2017 finished, and Ryzen being very successful for AMD, the inevitable question was due: what happens next? Early in 2018, the plans were laid bare: a second generation Ryzen processor was set to come in mid-year, followed by a second generation Thr...
