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
