Slightly Rushed To The Market
I am very impressed with how well the Ryzen 7 1700 performed against the i7-6900K. The Ryzen 7 1700 is the new king of price to performance ratio. It is the perfect processor for content creation and it's very good with gaming and it's very hard to beat...
Following up the 1800X and 1700X coverage with the Ryzen R7 1700 feels a little like I'm just repeating myself because in most aspects this is the same CPU. At this point, most people have had the time to see that the 1700 is an 8 core 16 thread Zen a...
Not all AMD Ryzen 1700 processors are built the same. Of the three we have in our possession, we have seen these check in overclocking-wise at 3.8GHz, 3.9GHz, and 4.0GHz. These are not POST-and-screenshot overclocks; these are full load 100% stability ove...

Don't let negative vibes fool you. AMD has released an excellent design that far surpasses what the release was like of the FX-8350 years ago. If it wasn't for Ryzen 5, I'd tell everyone to get a Ryzen 7 1700. If you can use 8 cores though, you should...

AMD Ryzen proved to be the great comeback of the company and a big advantage for consumers. The new CPUs offer Intel equivalent performance at half price, so nothing sounds better than this.Ryzen 7 1700 is an 8-core/16-threads processor, capable of runnin...
The 329 USD pricetag for Ryzen 7 1700 is golden. Seriously, this processor outs tremendous performance levels, especially multi-threaded performance kicks ass. We however are clueless as to why and how Ryzen is not performing well enough in gaming. I do n...

Well, well, well. what do we have here? Ryzen 7 1700 is AMD's cheapest octa-core offering which is priced at $329 and is set to go against the Intel Core i7 7700K. Not only the Ryzen 7 1700 is cheaper, but is rated at a lower TDP of 65W, which is quite a...

I still have a lot of questions to be answered surrounding the current performance and infrastructure for AMD Ryzen CPUs, but my time overclocking with the Ryzen 7 1700 has given me reason to believe AMD has a solid solution on its hands. For those enthus...

AMD's entry-level Ryzen 7 chip impresses on multi-core tasks, and our test chip overclocked to nearly 4GHz. But Intel's "Kaby Lake" chips are better at lightly threaded workloads and 1080p gaming—at least for now. Read More...

The AMD R7 1700 is priced in a way that makes it worthy of consideration at the cost, but with some of the same caveats as the R7 1800X. In the case of the R7 1700, we see mixed workload use cases shine better at the $330 price point, where the CPU deftly...
