Full Review of AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Surfaces

Please, stay clear of that nonsense Youtuber

Link something that has some actual weight, not this junk. He's grasping at straws to say good stuff about Ryzen gaming benchmarks when the platform has far from matured, and gaming results are literally all over the place. He's just throwing random thoughts out there to score clicks.

Lol. He proves it with data sets. Quit crying.

There's been many intel lovers triggered by his vids.

With the Ryzen 5 1600x clocked at 3.6 GHz with a boost clock of 4 GHz I'm going to put it right out there and say that the 1600x is going to be the chip that most people are going to want in their systems. The 1600x comes far closer to what Intel has to offer in terms of raw GHz numbers than any of the other Ryzen chips.

Basically... Ryzen 5 1600x = Performance Sweetspot

I would be really careful about this... I doubt that they re-tested the 1700x with the bios updates and performance patches.

It might look slightly faster because it's comparing old scores.

I'm basing my assumptions upon raw GHz numbers only.

Good God man, I've never been this excited over a processor launch in a long time. When was the last time we've been this excited? I think like ten years ago. For the first time AMD actually has something worth talking about. My God, these are exciting times we live in. Up until now everything has been... meh.

oh I agree... I love my R7 - I think the prime x370 is one of the fastest boards out there too - I'm beating scores at 4.025 ghz that peeps at 4.1+ cant even touch (like 1847 cb 15 score).

I figure that by this time next year when Ryzen v2 comes out Intel is going to have something to be scared about. I can see it on the horizon. The signs are there, you just need to know how to read them.

This is the kind of innovation that many of us in the tech community have been begging for. A return to the good old days when we saw real innovation, not just "here, these are some table scraps we picked up off the floor". This is the sign of a new PC industry renaissance.
