If you're gaming, the low frequency won't be great.

you'd be better off with a 7700 and a B250 board.

 

(Plus, I have no Idea where to buy that CPU)

Ah. I was just looking at the PCpartpicker list, and it only said Jet.com

 

I'm really not sure if the worse IPC and clockspeed of the Xeon makes it better for video editing than a 7700.

If you really want something much better, look at this:

- Way faster CPU (with modern features like M.2 SSDs, USB-C, etc.)

- Faster RAM

- Overclockable

lol @ Ryzen cpu

Its not even optimized yet

oh the fan birds fly hard dont they

 

 

Fan Birds?
 

Anyway, Nope, Not an AMD fanboy. it's just the objectively better option here.

the old sandy bridge CPU has a much lower IPC, much lower clockspeed, is much older (so it doesn't have new features like NVME Support) AND consumes way more power.

 

there is literally nothing about the Sandybridge that is better than the 1700. (if there is, please mention it.)

 

Plus, AM4 will get optimized over the next month or so. the same can't be said for the old Xeon.

I dunno price perhaps

Maybe looking at the price per performance would yield clearer information.

Look at the motherboard pricing.

 

Sandybridge Motherboard + Sandybridge CPU = Ryzen Motherboard + Ryzen 1700
