re: PC Discussion - Gaming, Performance and Enthusiasts

Makes about as much sense as all the people comparing 4 cores to 8 cores in general.

Especially the old arse games from 5 years ago they still test.


This is where it's at that though for the realistic and solid gaming performance from the lowest end R7



Once a few more of the kinks are worked out with updates this is far more indicative of the very very good gaming performance Ryzen offers in addition to the ridiculous application tasks performance on par and above a 6900K. This is what makes it a no brainer at $329 for the 1700 or the $399 for the 1700X.

You should only get the 1800X if you are strictly building a workstation, in which case it is unmatched at the moment.

More importantly, with how insanely well it handles tasks related to applications and workstations, Naples is looking to be very strong on the server side and that is where AMD will make its bank. And then I sell my stock at about $20-$25/share and buy me a boat!

For sure, just sucked major balls elsewhere.

CPU based x264 encoding for streams versus so many streamers that buy and setup a 2nd PC just for their stream to avoid GPU based encoding.

If I was a heavy streamer I'd be all over a 1700(X) already.

Thanks for write up Ultimatehog.

I'm seriously debating getting a 1700x for my new computer build. Plan on gaming and using it to do some AutoCAD, Microstation to start a civil design business in near future. Going to wait a few weeks and see where dust settles, but do you think 8 core is too much or should I go with 4 core 7700k???

Here's my current build, already have everything but CPU, motherboard, video card and monitor: Optimo Build

gotta keep that lactaid handy!

You look like a guy that is informing on a gang....lol

I just added a new puppy to the family.

Nope, I tried, she can take Yellow Claw in stride though (EDM), I have only had one piss in the floor in two days though. She does like to taste test everything though.

No, we gotta make sure we are PC towards everything.

This fricking society today pisses me off.

So Since the flood wiped out my PC and we are now finally getting close to moving back into my house...I did a pc part picker build ..goal was to get superb 1080p gaming under 1k bucks and a modest storage size SSD.

Please if you are inclined, tell me how bad I fricked up :
