AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Overclocking – Best Ryzen Processor?

[Apoptosis]

On Thursday, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) launched their Ryzen 7 processor series and we looked at all three processors in our launch article. Over the past several days we’ve been able to spend more time with the Ryzen 7 1800X, 1700X and 1700 and we’ve found ourselves really starting to like the Ryzen 7 1700 processor the best from an enthusiast perspective. For starts the AMD Ryzen 7 1700 is the lowest price processor of the group at $329.99 shipped and it just happens to be the only model that comes with an AMD Wraith CPU cooler.

Again, the Veracrypt graphic is blurry - wtf? LMAO I told the wife I may be having a stroke but she said it was blurry to her also and then added "dammit' Oh and they are not blurry when you click on it just on the static page.

Ok, other graphics are blurry too, like the thief page - a bunch are.

Maybe I need more coffee.

I am very impressed with the overclocking capabilities of the low end 7 but not with the MB being a $300 beast that is almost as much as the CPU! Are there lower priced MB that will support the good OC for the 7 CPU? Power goes up a lot and that is a bummer but nothing that would make me not buy it. I wonder how the OC would do if you ran it for a solid week or so with a rendering project running 24/7. I am wondering because of how close everyone is saying AMD pushed the CPU to the edge to get the performance, I wonder if OC'ing these will drastically reduce lifespan.

It's just because the images are larger than the width of the site. That means when I upload them to Wordpress a 3rd party utility needs to resize them down and the new smaller image it creates is sometimes blurry due to the compression. The original image is one I saved from Microsoft Excel and put into Photoshop CC 2017 and saved for web at 70% as a JPEG.

The images are starting to get time consuming for these larger reviews... The original Ryzen 7 roundup of all 3 processors had 81 images alone in it. This one only has 36, but 25+ were just charts.
