Pros: Priced right, 7nm, great out of box performance, backwards compatible with older AM4 boards Cons: Toasty when overclocked; can’t get over 4.4 Ghz without a lot of additional power. Overall Review: I was an early adopter of the Ryzen 1000 series, which came with its setbacks, however the 1700 I had been using for a couple of years proved to be a great CPU. The 3000 series with its 50% die shrink was very attractive and being compatible with older AM4 boards like mine made this purchase…

Pros: – Combined 3 dedicated PCs into 1 while giving me more cores than the summation of the 3 for-mention PCs – For objective reviews of this processor, see professional reviews elsewhere online Cons: – None. Overall Review: This review is subjective, for an objective review you can see the hundreds of professional reviews for this processor. Why would you ever need a 12 cores with 24 logical threads? This processor has allowed me to combined 3 PCs into 1, which has dramatically cut down on…

Pros: Excels at modern gaming titles, it only falls slightly short if you have something like a Nvidia 2080 Ti GPU. 12 threads are more than enough for most workloads. Excellent IPC means it has more processing power per Hz than most if not all Intel chips currently available. Excellent power consumption for the performance. Cons: Although really negligible, boost clocks falls slightly short of what I expected. PBO doesn’t really overclock or increase performance. In a sense, the biggest con…

Overall Review: Upgraded from an R5 1600x. Running this chip with a MSI X470 Carbon Motherboard, 8 GB worth of G-Skill Blinged-Out Ram, and an RTX 2080. Did plenty of research before I upgraded and everyone online was saying it won’t make a difference at 1440p (or 4k) and that the GPU is the bottleneck in those cases. I can tell you right now that none of those folks know what the heck they are talking about. I gained 15-25 FPS in my game of choice by just replacing the 1600x with the 3700x….

Pros: -fast -doubled my core/thread count from my 4790k, staggering performance leap in multi core apps, decent improvement in single core. -relatively cheap for the performance -ABBA bios has sorted out voltage, temperature, fan noise, and most importantly…boost clocks. Cons: -PBO settings can be a little confusing, but i’ve been on Intel since my last AMD CPU, an athlon x2 3600. -AM4 mounting bracket…..ARRRRRGH Overall Review: I’ve waited a long time for a chip worthy to replace my…

Pros: Price Speed Familiarity Cons: none yet Overall Review: About every 10 years I get the itch to build a desktop from parts. From 1Ghz AMD Thunderbirds to my last build using an AMD Phenom II black edition, I have been using AMD CPU’s for my desktop builds. They just work and have so far each lasted 10 years of overclocked 24/7 ontime usage. This new Ryzen 7 3700X is almost on par with my Intel I9 9900 that I have in an Area51 Laptop. It actually beats it in Cinebench R20. This thing is…

Pros: Snappy processer, stays cool and has a low load even when gaming! Cons: No cons! Overall Review: Coming from Intel i7, I wasnt sure about going with AMD. My Intel lasted me 8 yrs overclocked at 4.6ghz. But Surprise! This is a great gaming CPU! I dont even see the need to OC this thing. It chews up and spits out everything thrown at it thus far. Stays cool even in turbo, and while gaming. I played Star Citizen in 4K, and this CPU only carries a 30% load using all 8 cores. Great job AMD,…

Pros: i game like 20% of the time on my computer and spend the rest of the time CAD modelling or compiling code. this thing blows those tasks out of the water while still handling 4k gaming like a champ. in fact i can have a game open, 20 chrome tabs open, and a fully lit scene rendering, and still have processor room leftover for compressing yesterday’s work Cons: doesn’t actually taste like a chip, the gold pins stabbed me in the mouth. definitely not a good source of vitamin d Overall…
