Review: Powerhouse - Just a beast of a cpu. Can munch through multithreaded tasks brilliantly and a great performer for gaming. Now let me stop you there. ''Great performer for gaming'' Yes that is true. I have played all the latest games on it and getting a solid 60+ frames on ultra and above without the cpu even breaking a sweat. Yes a 7700k is a brillant chip for gaming but for how long. Games are slowly utilizing more cores and threads so this will pay of in the long run and now intel have started hex core and above cpu's in there main line up on there x299 boards it will force devs and game manufactures to utilize that technology so its winner winner chicken dinner. You need to look at the games out there and work out for your self what frame rate you want to play out and what resolution. Look at the bench marks and the 7700k is levelling or beating this cpu on some titles but look at the bench marks a little closer and specificaly look at 2k and above.. Those games the ryzen was lagging behind on now suddenly its matching or beating the 7700k simple due to more cpu power needed for higher res and this cpu can delivery it. Its only going to get better and better for this cpu.
Review: For £170 this thing is a monster! - As the title says, this CPU is a monster for the price! I currently have mine clocked to 4Ghz and it is beast on the desktop and in Games. This is a fantastic CPU, definitely worth taking a peak if you're wanting to start in PC Gaming and not have to pay ridiculous prices that Intel are offering. This CPU is super close in terms of performance to the i7 7700k and half the price! Easy to install and easy to control with the help of the Ryzen Master software where you can Tweak your custom or premade 'gaming' preset which clocks the CPU up to 4Ghz for you without the worry of voltages and timings on your RAM. Now this CPU won't be churning out games on Max settings but I've been playing majority of my beefy titles like GTAV, Watchdogs 2, Witcher 3, AC Origins and all on Very High settings paired with my 980Ti with either MSAA or MSAAx2 - MSAA with maybe 2 or 3 frames dropped here and there - MSAAx2 with around maybe 4 or 6 frames dropped, so it's definitely playable if you want to get a little better quality but the regular MSAA is your best bet if you want to play Very High settings with 60fps 98% of the time 👌🏻

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come with a heatsink? Some counfusing information on the internet with regards to that...**
A: Very strange that Amazon displays a question about the 1700x on the 2700x product.  
If its a 2700x it comes with The Wraith Prism cooler.
If its a 1700x it doesnt have a cooler.

**Q: Does this come with a cooler**
A: This CPU does not come with a cooler included.

**Q: Is it worth upgrading from i7 7700k**
A: Just for gaming...NO. But for everything else - Yes! In light of the current security breaches in Intel CPUs, AMD is a safe bet!

**Q: Is this cpu compatible with the asus prime b350 plus out of the box**
A: Yes but make sure you update to the latest compatible bios for correct performance

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bit of a disappointment
*by A***R on 15 November 2018*

AMD Ryzen 7 1700X a lot of the Pro's and Cons have already been written all over the Internet about this CPU, it's quirky and a bit of a gamble as to what Ghz you can get it to run at without crashes, mine runs at a mere 3.40 Ghz which I'm not exactly ecstatic about...
