8 cores, 16 threads for under £400, Impressive multi-core performance, Almost every bit as fast as the 1800X, Wide range of modern AM4 boards, Vastly improved power consumption, Gives Intel food for thought
Single-thread is good but not great, Gaming optimisations still needed, Limited overclocking potential
The launch of AMD's Ryzen processor is a significant milestone in the company's history. Such is the importance of the Zen architecture that it makes sense to step back and consider how much progress AMD has made.This time last week, the chip manufact...
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: These days there are basically two different groups of customers who demand lots of processing power: content creators and gamers, while this 2D performance comparison is targeting content creators. After having had a look at the following pages you'll ha...
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...
At the beginning of this review I mentioned the delays which plagued our 1700X and 1700 samples but looking back, that extra time to digest Ryzen has proven to be beneficial. Now that everyone has had time to take a breather and let some of the emotions s...
Great multi-threaded performance, Economical unlocked 8-core CPU
Ecosystem still to mature, Still not completely optimised for gaming
From what we've seen with the benchmarks, AMD's Ryzen 7 series offer a lot better performance given their much lower price point. Anomalies were plenty with some of the newer benchmarks with the Ryzen 5 processors which proved to be better. AMD's gain is...
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 1700X retails at just RM 1,899 but when you compare price to performance, it floors the Ryzen 7 1800X as they're near identical but with the Ryzen 7 1700X running slightly cooler due to the lowered clock speed. My only dislike towards the...
Sometimes you don't have to be the absolute best to be a winnerIn a nutshell, Ryzen 5's main advantage over Intel's Core i5 range is the higher number of cores and threads it offers while sharing the same price bracket. That's not unlike what AMD offers w...
