So I'm sure you've seen this video doing the rounds, particularly among AMD fanboys looking for any and every possible reason that someone else who isn't AMD is responsible for Ryzen not being the fantastic gaming CPU they were promised -- and bonus points if you can claim that it's somehow Nvidia's doing (let's choose to ignore the fact that the only Nvidia CPU you're likely to be gaming on is inside the Nintendo Switch) As a preface I quite like Jim, I like the testing that he does and he's always a fun and interesting person to have a discussion with. However, his conclusion in this oftly cited gotcha video is just flat out wrong. This isn't the first time I've actually brought up on this forum how astonishingly multithreaded this game is in Directx 12, so to see the Internet plastered with this video claiming that this game is limited to mainly one core on Nvidia drivers is a little odd. I have, however, never looked at this game at 1080p, so I decided to have a little look at that, both with SLI on, and off. Just a warning now, apologies for "screenshots" being literal photographs of my monitor. GeForce Experience is borked for me atm and I cba to fix it, and steam overlay doesn't work with RotTR. So moving on, I tested Geothermal valley on my ageing 6-core both with SLI on (2xGTX 1080) and SLI off, in the same place as both AdoredTV and DigitalFoundry. Gaming with only one GTX 1080 even at 1080p it is difficult to say whether I am CPU or GPU bound. They are both running pretty close to their limit, but the 1080 undoubtedly has nothing left to give, while the 3960X has a little. This is actually why I still don't consider 1080p a "low resolution" when it comes to benchmarking CPUs. Even at 1080p, with a Sandy Bridge CPU an overclocked GTX 1080 is still at 98% utilisation. The picture shows at that point in Geothermal Valley I am getting 102.3 FPS, while at 98% GPU utilisation. It gets interesting when you look at CPU utilisation. Not too shabby, 75% utilisation across all 12 logical threads. I find it hard to look at this CPU utilisation and conclude that the Nvidia driver is loading one core particularly more than the others as AdoredTV claimed. Nevertheless, I had a look at what the numbers look like with Multi GPU enabled. In the same position GPU utilisation has plummeted all the way down to 56%, either this game has crap multi GPU support or I am truly CPU limited here. FPS has increased to 110.5 fps, which coupled with the complete lack of stuttering implies the latter to me. So let's have a look at what the CPU looks like here. See when I first saw utilisation like this in a Dx12 game my reaction was "holy shit, at last". 98% utilisation across 12 logical cores. Evidently, I am indeed CPU limited here. Whether I was GPU bottlenecked before, or whether the introduction of SLI has also resulted in additional CPU load, I can't say, but it is clear that my CPU has very little left to give here, while the 1080s do. What is clear, however, is that the claim being circulated that Nvidia's Dx12 driver for Rise of the Tomb Raider cannot split the first core's workload across the CPU, and therefore this is the reason for Ryzen's lacklustre performance is simply not true. This game loves cores. This game should love Ryzen much more than the 7700K, regardless of whose GPU it is paired with.

I want to upgrade my current build, I have an nVidia 1070, an SSD, a 2TB HDD, Power supply, and a Disk drive. So I would like to upgrade (buy) a new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and CPU liquid cooler. My entire build revolves around what CPU I get and I have looked at so many benchmarks and videos and still can't decide between the Ryzen 7 1700X or the Intel i7-7700K any help would be appreciated. I am using the PC mainly for gaming, but I will on occasion mess around with FL Studio and my Midi Keyboard.

Hi guys, So I´m a bit confused... I have already bought a Asus Prime Pro AM4 Mobo, and some sweet Vengeance LPX Mem. But as for which of the trio infernale from AMD I will ultimately go for, I have absolutely no idea. 1700 for cheapest price? 1700X for best value? 1800X for POWERRRRR? But then again many forum threads say these chips are the same and you can OC a 1700 to be basically a 1800X for less bucks. Some say thats not true...some others offer screenshots of benchmarks which appear to put them at the same level when OCed. I don´t know guys, I can't sleep properly, I don't eat anything and I dream about Ryzen CPUs constantly. Its bothering be so much, I don't even game anymore. I only read articles about benchmarks. Joking aside Does anybody know for sure which one I should go for? Thanks a lot

Hey guys, Not sure if anyone else has been having this issue, or if it actually is an issue, but I'm trying to see if I can get my 1700x to 3.9 but no matter my voltage (of what I tested), when I get into windows, the clock speed drops back down to 3.5. I don't know if this is a safety mechanism or what but does anyone know a work around? I was able to get to 3.9 before but it wasn't stable to I dropped it back down to 3.8 but I'm trying again to see if I can get it.

So for those of you who overclock, you know that overclocking Ryzen ram has been an absolute shit show (This coming from a guy using nothing but Ryzen). However leave it up to a great company like MSI to provide a solution. Recently my Asus Crosshair am4 motherboard bricked itself ( Will link my post on it here Because of this I decided to purchase a cheaper board with MSI as I am doing a build for my wife, so could use it while I wait for the RMA. However I may not go back after the ease of overclocking, specifically the ram. MSI has come out with a technology called A - XMP which is exactly what it sounds like. XMP profiles are one click options you pick out of the bios that has been designed and tested to overlock the ram with a simple click of a button. However it hasn't been working well as all these ram kits were tested using Intel CPUS. A-XMP is a profile designed for specifically Ryzen. Was able to one click my ram to 3200, with very minimal voltage increase (Left on Auto, then messed with it as was stable at 1.35 soc with a .6 offset). CPU is also clocked to 3.9 right now (1700x I lost the silicon lottery). For those of you still planning Ryzen builds, I fully endorse MSI boards over any other for this reason. I generally have picked them for the last 4-5 years, but now more then ever they have seemed to be the best about fixing and pre-empting issues with Ryzen, and unless you plan on doing SLI (350 boards only do Crossfire with the exception of 1-2 boards) there is no reason to get a 370 chipset. Board I bought cost $80 on sale, the one that bricked was $250. It was shocking how easy the overclocking was and how no hassle it went, especially after all the headache I have gone through with the other board.

Ryzen 1700x at 80 degrees while in BIOS
Gameking002 posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
so, i just finished building my new pc. but when i first get into the bios it immediately reports my CPU being at 80 degrees Celsius. so i updated my BIOS in the hope that it would fix it. but nope, issue still remains. what makes it even weirder is that when i am in the BIOS for a few minutes the temperatures only get lower until they reach a temperature of around 75. it looks like my temps are inverted though i am not sure that is the actual case. So my question was if any other users are experiencing the same issue. and if there might be a software fix for it. if not i think i will have to RMA some parts but i am not sure which. because of my understanding the CPU does these temperature measurements. but the motherboard displays them. so if there is no software fix. which of the 2 should i RMA. or should i RMA them both? -
Howdy there, should I OC the 1700 inside the motherboard bios or use the AMD Ryzen master utility thing? As i would like to overclock it to 4.00ghz.

Hello i have decided to finaly buy a new rig after 9 years. I want to build a system that it will last me at least 6 years. I currently have i7-920 3.8 OC with Seidon 120V v2, 12gb 1033MHz ddr3 ram, r9 290 tri-x. i want to build a ryzen system, i will use it for game development and gaming. These are the items i have concluded: CPU: 1800X or 1700X, not sure yet Motherboard: Asus Rog Crosshair VI Hero RAM: Gskill Flare X 16GB 3200MHz DDR4 Cooling: CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240 Case: Phanteks Enthoo Luxe Tempered Glass SSD: Samsung 960 EVO NVMe M.2 250GB or Samsung 850 Evo 500GB HDD: i will use from my current-old rig PSU: i will use from my current-old rig GPU: i will use from my current-old rig I am tending towards 1700X, then get a water-cooling and OC at a later time. Here are my questions: 1) will 16GB be enough for the future or should i get 32gb ram with lower frequency? 2) Also i don't quite understand the dual rank and dual channel thing. The Crosshair VI Hero support 4 modules of ram, if i buy flare x pack which has 2 modules, and later i buy another flare x pack so i can get 32gb total, will they work? or i will have to buy a 4 module pack? 3) if i get 1700X and OC with water-cooling, will i be able to match 1800X OC? 4) which ssd to choose? go for speed with the 960 EVO or for lower speed but increased capacity with 850 EVO? If you have any suggestions or improvements i shall make please post below. Thanks in advance for helping.

Hey guys, not a question but a reminder that on https://www.amazon.fr/AMD-Ryzen-1700X-Processeur-Socket/dp/B06X3W9NGG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491825920&sr=8-1&keywords=ryzen you can buy the 1700X for the price of the 1700. Just add 5€ shipping and you have still saved 50€. This is mainly for people living in DACH or Spain or UK, as shipping will be more expensive if you go further away. I just ordered my 1700X and you should to if you want a Ryzen but are waiting for a bargain.

Today Ryzen master released update 1.01. This takes away the 20C offset for the 1800x, 1700x, and 1600x respectively so you get accurate temps, not 20C offset. Here is a pic of the updated Ryzen Master temps on the left and my corsair link using junction temperature, rather than tCTL which it has been. New Ryzen Master version download -https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/ryzen-master Update article -https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2017/04/06/amd-ryzen-community-update-3 Unclocked cpu to show difference. The actual temps show up left, the offset temps on the right. Almost a 25C difference! Hopefully now people can get more overclocking headroom out of their system.

I finally got all my parts together and powered on my build for the first time. Here is a list of my parts: Asus crosshair hero x370 Ryzen r7 1700x intel 256GB NVME M.2 SSD 2x8GB TridentZ RGB 3200MHz RAM Corsair RM750X PSU GTX 1070 strix 2x 2TB HDD H100i v2 cooler I had a bit of trouble booting the first time but i figured it was because I needed to update the BIOS and be because my RAM speeds weren't supported yet. So i did that and this still were weird. It would take a very long time to boot into BIOS every time (default setting) and then always tell me that the overclocking failed (I didn't overclock) but I was able to get into windows. When in windows sometimes the computer would freeze and sometime the screen would go black for a bit before just acting like nothing happened. I finally got all my drivers downloaded and ran a few benchmarks ignoring these issues. I then enabled XMP for my ram and put it at the appropriate frequency, when booting after it would seem like ti would start booting the fail and then try again, did this a few times then I got into windows, I open CPUz and it says I have my old speeds still on my RAM. So I try to boot into BIOS but not I was getting error A9 and it would never boot. I tried clearing the CMOS and resetting but it didn't help. The error is now 0d and my computer won't even boot into BIOS. What should I do?

Last overclock guide video was awesome. However, for an o/c noob i really can't translate those configuration done in Linus's 1700x o/c guide w/ asus board (mine is biostar x370 gt7). I don't mean to be a lazy bastard, but if someone has come to a good o/c with my spec can you help, please? My rig contains : M/B : Biostar RACING X370 GT7 CPU : Ryzen 1700x RAM: ddr4 16g pc4-25600 cl16 trident z rgb

I'm quite confused. My boot times are pretty awful. When I check task manager, I see Last BIOS time: 22.8 seconds. Once the Windows logo appears, it boots in 5 seconds. It's getting to that screen that takes forever. Even shutting down the computer can take a long time. It's a fresh install on Windows 10 on my SSD. Completely new build. I've tried turning off everything in startup as well as in the BIOS and fast boot is enabled. I'm not sure why it's taking so long. I have a Samsung 850 EVO SSD in two other computers. Computers that are nowhere as powerful as this one. And they boot twice as fast. Any ideas what I can do to fix this? Or what may be causing the problem? This also happens if I run stock speeds.

Based on the info here: https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2017/03/13/amd-ryzen-community-update They state that the temps displayed are 20 C more than what it actually is. So, does that mean that when I get a reading of 100 C when doing a stress test, I'm actually at 80 C and perfectly fine? I am testing on a variety of programs: Cinebench, RealBench, AIDA64, FurMark, and Valley Benchmark. Monitoring with HWMonitor, with CPU-Z and Ryzen Master to double check. Not simultaneously, of course.

Ok so I have read that the 1700x and the 1800x have a difference of 20C than what the temp is actually reporting. If that is true or not I don't know but even with that accounted for my temps just seem to be completely off. At idle temps sitting at 69C up to 76C. Played one game of Counter Strike: Global Offense and the CAM overlay showed temps jumping into the high 90s and right after the system stopped and shut down. Clearly there's some issue here. The cooler I am using is a Corsair H60 (I know not the biggest cooler but its just running at stock speeds so should be plenty of cooling power). Any help with this would be appreciated.

HELP! I am having a very odd issue with my AMD Ryzen 7 1700x on a Gigabyte AX370-Gaming 5 motherboard. After some extensive overclocking, I suddenly had issues with getting the Gigabyte App Center CIV app to work properly. No matter how many times I wiped and re-installed the software, I couldn't get it to control the fans anymore. So I decided to re-install Windows 10 Pro to see if it would fix the problem. This didn't fix the issue, but now I'm having a far worse problem. Even though "Device Manager" shows I have all 16 threads visible and working properly, Going into "Task Manager" and selecting "Performance" shows I have literally half of my processor available. Even CPU-Z shows I have 4-cores and 8-threads. It's even showing I only have HALF of my cache! Has anyone else had this issue, or is this possibly the sign my CPU has died (praying to Bob it's not a dead CPU)?

So i go back and forth between the two processes and want to know what y'all think. I'm making my first pc. I do a heavy amount of photo editing and i do a fair bit of gaming. Do i go with a Intel 7700k build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/63ZQ4C or an Amd 1700x build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/W7R47h

Greetings, Im working on upgrading my Ryzen system, and Id love to jump on the NVME bandwagon, but I have concerns as to how it will affect the usage of my other 7 sata drives (5 HDD, 2 SSD). I remember seeing somewhere that using an nvme drive on the Asus Crosshair Hero VI would limit me to 4 sata ports, however I cant seem to find that info again. Can some help me understand what the limits to nvme on this platform is? And if it does limit my sata drives, how can I work around this? A raid controller perhaps, though at that point PCIE lanes would likely become an issue. Thanks for your help!

So I've owned my Ryzen build for just under a month now and have had problems from the beginning. It started out as a "TSLGame.exe has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware" issue, which I posted on reddit about and tried everything (new drivers, old drivers, downclocking the card, reseating the card etc etc) till I read online that it could be ram, so I downloaded memtest and straight away got errors, I was happy to pin point the problem so I bought the pro version and got a log file created and filed for an RMA with the place that stocked the parts and built/setup my machine for me. The next day I ran memtest again and couldnt get errors, went to 100% coverage and still got nothing back, any game I tried to play continued to crash so I went out sourcing more ways to test my system. Came across AIDA64 and how it was the be all and end all of stressing so I gave it a run, low and behold on CPU/FPU/Cache and it came back with the "Warning: Hardware failure detected! Test Stopped" error. I finally think I have pinpointed whats wrong, but not sure where to go next. Is there any easy way to my system stable or is it a case of I need to RMA my CPU? I didn't build this myself but rather got a reputable computer builder/parts stockist in Australia to put it together for me, I have a "Certificate of quality assurance" that literally says the CPU was tested/burnt in and that all the parts were tested/compatible with eachother so I could call their bluff if theres nothing I can really do here...

Hi all, In my previous PC, I was using 16GB of 3200Mhz Corsair LPX Vengeance memory. It sported a 7700k, but I always trouble with overclocking . During stress, the PC would seemingly freeze for 3-4 seconds, and then carry on as if nothing happened. I chalked it down to a below average 7700k, and thought little more of it. However, I have recently transferred over to a Ryzen PC, with a 1700X and the same sticks of memory (using an Aorus X370 Gaming 5 board). The issue, oddly, is still there. Micro freezes during stress, even at stock settings (i.e. CPU at stock, RAM not using the XMP profile). It's baffling as the PC seems to cope with stress just fine, even when aggressively overclocked to the 4Ghz barrier. 4GHz passes Realbench @ 1.4v (1.39v crashed after a time). Temps are WELL in check. Could the issue (being the only part of the PC that stayed the same, save for GPU/PSU) be the memory? It seems odd, even at stock. The system seems totally stable day to day, except when it is stressed. The odds of having two dodgy CPUs/boards are next to none, I'd have thought. Thoughts? I don't think this normal, as I see others doing Cinebench/Realbench runs and it never hitches or does a micro freeze. I'd have thought if the system was semi unstable, it would just crash?

Hey there, so I'm building a new PC this month and im cracking my head over the question of which CPU would suit me best. I mostly do gaming on my 4k monitor while i watch videos or something on another monitor, idk if this counts as multitasking yet, but with my current xeon i get stuttering etc. I also use Ableton a lot, but in that im already happy with my xeon performance, no worries here. I know the 8700k is "out", but according to some articles i read online today, it seems almost impossible to get one until early 2018. Also the CPU has a whole 360mm rad custom loop on its own, so thermals aren't much of a problem. I'm not afraid of overclocking either, which is why i chose the 1700x over the 1800x. Furthermore, ram compatibility seems to be horrible with ryzen/AM4 motherboards, as far as i could tell from my google research, although i have to admit that many of those posts were from a few months back, maybe BIOS updates fixed these problems. (I would like some RGB Ram like the Trident Z, much RBG, that's why i care about compatibility) Basically, this is my story and I'm ripping my hair out bc i can't decide on a CPU. It's very hard to find benchmarks for these kind of multitasking situations.

does it work flawlessly or do you need to adjust something in the bios or is 3200mhz underclocked with no way of overclocking it back up? here's the link : https://www.amazon.in/G-SKILL-Ripjaws-288-Pin-Platform-F4-3200C16S-16GVK/dp/B0171GQXME?tag=googinhydr18418-21&tag=googinkenshoo-21&ascsubtag=b0f257ea-fd5b-4676-93a4-e4f3cbf4c72c
