I am absolutely grateful AMD brought these kind of CPU's to a price that the average guy can get

I deducted a star because AMD was not ready to ship the chipset for these processors at launch and it has caused me a lot of headaches and wasted time getting a stable PC

No regrets and will probably purchase an AMD 16 core next gen

I Have used AMD in early 2000, but was not totally satisfied with speed

I'll admit I always look for the best deals, but AMD is making stuff twice as good at half the price

So as improbable as it may seem, this AMD Ryzen 7 chip failed

nothing more even with voltage increases seems to work, the result is over 60% performance peak gains in overall experience, well done AMD, will definitely upgrade my other builds with more Ryzen CPUs very soon.

Overall, AMD really has hit it out of the park with this new release, and I heavily recommend this CPU for anyone who uses demanding applications, or even people who just play games and occasionally use applications that benefit from having 8 physical cores on the side (such as video editing, rendering, 3D modeling, etc.)

AMD has fixed this issue in newer batches of cpus, and only affects early adopters in the first few weeks

Thank you AMD

amd doesnt recommend going over 1.375v for extended periods but most people do 1.4-1.45v to get 4.1ghz under exotic cooling , suggest just seeing where 1.375v gets you and stopping there as long as its stablecons very picky on ram will not do advertised speeds on most ram :( will default to 2133-2400mhz for most ramit can be slow in benches compared to similarly priced i7's but has double the cores to compensatenot much use for 16 threads yet lolfor

I have this paired this with an MSI Tomahawk B350 MB and also don't forget to download and take advantage of AMD's free software AMD Ryzen Master

Overall, thank you AMD for some competition

The good thing is that AMD and the motherboard manufacturers are not sitting by with idle hands regarding this issue.

deal , thanks AMD

Good job AMD (I'm not a fan boy, all my last 5 PCs were all intel, just giving a good review to an excellent product).Update

Good job AMD

Glad AMD's back in the game.

I will admit that I am a proud AMD fanboy

Couldn't be happier with my purchase, welcome back AMD!

My brother originally wanted to stick with Intel but after my 1800x build, I highly recommend AMD to my brother and he is one happy man because not only I save him some money and it is also faster and more cores than the i7 processors

I hate AMD , garbo

I've been loyal to the Intel brand for decades but AMD got it right for the

AMD has really outdone themselves and Intel this round and it shows in the press especially price-wise.

Thank you very much AMD.

Thank you AMD for never giving up and showing us that underdogs can once again rise like a phoenix.

Thank you AMD!

Welcome back AMD!(I overclocked the 1700 to 3.6ghz for starters, have a watercooler on its way to go further)

AMD knocked it put of the park on this first iteration

very very content to see that AMD is there to break the impossible Intels price for great workstation....

AMD is the best thing smoking right now

Thank you AMD for making 8 core processors financially viable to the public at large

AMD is being modest

Very loyal AMD fun .Waited for 6 year on this

Very happy AMD figured out how to cut the tdp down ,that helps with the heat issues from the past.for $329.00 it cant

I am so happy AMD was able to do this, and hope that many people are buying this or analogous products to support AMD.

AMD has really outdone themselves with this new platform

A most excellent showing AMD, you have won me over.

Anyhow...onto the review..AMD as the underdog has shaken things up once again.

I'll start out by saying I prefer AMD over Intel

Honestly AMD did amazing with the AM4 platform and so far it seems to be more secure than the intel SKUs which is a nice to have

I'd also recommend saving the 60-100 dollars on the X370 boards and stay with the B350 boards as they seem to overclock just as well.

AMD it took a while but you finally got it as close to perfect as

It comes default at 3.0, but this thing barely breaks a
