Quite how AMD's range of Ryzen CPUs would pan out in terms of stock and overclocked performance was anyone's guess, but we're getting a clearer picture of how things stand, at least with the flagship Ryzen 7 range. Today we're looking at the Ryzen 7 1700...
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...

Ryzen 7 has already proven to be a worthy contender for Intel's LGA 2011-3 set of processors thanks to its similar, or sometimes better, performance levels and significantly cheaper cost. That metric is stretched even further with the 8C16T Ryzen 7 1700 t...

We've taken a look at two of the Ryzen 7 processors namely the 1800X and the 1700X. Both processors delivered marvelous performance in multi-threaded benchmarks. It's time to take a look at what can be considered the "lower-end" processor of the Ryzen 7 s...

We honestly have to give it to AMD for developing a 65W processor that can almost keep up with the 95W Ryzen 1700X and 1800X eight-core processors. The fact that all Ryzen processors, including the Ryzen 1700 CPU with the "unlocked" status, is the biggest...

The Ryzen 7 1700 is the cheapest of AMD's first Zen-based CPUs and also now my favourite, and not just because I'm a financially-focused bread head. For me this is where AMD's octa-core Ryzen 7 CPUs genuinely give Intel a bit of a headache when it comes t...
The Ryzen 7 1700 is really what I was hoping for from the first octa-core Zen-based chips. It's around the same price as Intel's eight-threaded quad-core i7 7700K, if a little cheaper, and runs rings around it from a straight CPU performance point of view...

The AMD Ryzen 7 1700 is hands down my favorite Ryzen model so far, retailing at just RM 1,599.Unlike the Ryzen 7 1700X and 1800X that are 95W models, the 1700 is a 65W model. The key difference it runs at a much lower 3.0Ghz base clock compared to the 3.4...
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...

Casting our minds back five years, before the time AMD rehired the Zen microarchitecture engineer Jim Keller in 2012 (who incidentally had huge influence on AMD's previous successes), today's Ryzen CPU launch seemed almost impossible.Not only had Intel a...
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...

I recently took a look at AMD's top dog Ryzen 7 1800X 8-core/16-thread CPU, and while it's multi-core performance was dangerously fast, it also costs upwards of $500. AMD also launched two more affordable models, with identical core counts and even the sa...
I thought that the Ryzen 7 1800X was a great CPU, that is why I gave it the second highest award we offer at TweakTown. It's a great CPU that does very well against Intel's HEDT's 8-core CPUs and does so at a remarkably lower price. However, that price, $...

Fundamentally, not much separates the three Ryzen 7s except clock-speeds. The 1700X drops a couple of hundred megahertz, but saves you £130/$100. Meanwhile, the entry-level 1700 sees a 3.0GHz base clock - some way off the top-tier model's 3.6GHz - but off...
There's a range of advice we can offer to any prospective Ryzen owners. First, the more expensive 1800X is only recommended if you want the fastest possible stock processor, no matter what the cost. Highly clocked out of the box, there's not a huge amount...

The price difference between the 1700 and the flagship 1800X is fairly small now, at £30-40, which means the 1700 is really only worth considering if you plan to overclock it. The Ryzen 7 1700 has a base frequency of just 3GHz and can only boost to 3.7GHz...
