Great CPU for a multi-purpose system
The editors didn't like
Still slightly slower in some single threaded applications
8 cores, 16 threads for under £320, Impressive multi-core performance, Lower TDP than 1700X or 1800X, Wide range of modern AM4 boards, Makes Core i7 X99 seem ultra-expensive
Single-thread is good but not great, Gaming optimisations still needed
The launch of AMD Ryzen 7 CPUs has largely been greeted with positivity by the media and most forum users. Their undeniable strength rests with massive multi-core capability at prices that are 2-3x cheaper than select Core i7 chips manufactured by Intel...
65W TDP (Cool running, impressive performance perWatt), 8/16 cores threads, Easy to overclock, Very competitive price, Supplied with RGB LED cooler
No XFRtechnology, Specific memory requirements
In our testing, the 1700 performs surprisingly good, and in some benches, better than expected. This is likely down to the ongoing optimisations, and the ironing out of any bugs that may have reared its head since release. There are more optimisations exp...

Competitive price, 8-Core w/ 16 Threads, New AM4 platform, Very easy to overclock, Can closely match the 1800X while overclocked, Precision Boost and XFR, Excellent performance in rendering (Cinebench), Good gaming performance,
None, Neutral, Memory performance still has a few bugs, but we expect these to be fixed with a BIOS update, Like all 8-core chips, it can get quite warm, so a powerful cooler is recommended, Price is very similar to the more established i7-7700K, “The Ryz
PricingThe Ryzen 7 1700 comes in at just £332.60, a far cry from the flagship, 1800X which costs £488.99. On Amazon UK. That makes the R7 1700 around the same price at the Intel Core i7-7700K (mostly thanks to recent Intel price cuts).OverviewThe Ryzen hy...
What we have here is somewhat of an overclocker's dream. While anything much over 4GHz is going to be tricky, at least until we see improvements AMD's end, the Ryzen 7 1700 is still able to dish out a 1GHz overclock over its base frequency of 3GHz and thi...

Abstract: In this, the ultimate AMD vs Intel comparison, Fierce PC sent me two identical systems – barring the CPU and motherboard of course! The Intel system features an i7-7700K and an Asus Maximus IX Hero – whereas the AMD system features a Ryzen 7 1700 running...
Overall, then, the day has finally arrived that we thought would never come - a competitive CPU from AMD at the high end. There are some teething problems to get over, and don't expect as polished an experience as you would from an Intel Z270 system right...
Abstract: I'm going to start this article off with a simple number: five. Not only is that the number of months it has taken AMD to effectively turn the x86 processor world on its ear, but that's also the number of distinct model families that they've introduced...
Looking back at how things played out over the course of this review, I have no doubt it will be one of the most hotly debated articles that I've written in the last few months, maybe even the last year. There's no denying that the Zen architecture has pr...
While the numbers are impressive, gaming performance of Ryzen processors still leaves a lot to be desired. Not to mention that games are yet to be optimized for the Ryzen processors and DX 12, which can lead to better utilization of multiple CPU cores. Th...
The AMD Ryzen 7 1700 is hands-down my favorite processor simply because I'm an overclocker and I can get it to perform as good as the higher-end models without incurring the cost. For those who have the money to spend and want the fastest speed out of the...
