ryzen gets really hot 

I haven't followed the news for some time, but wasn't there a +20 degrees offset? Ryzen looking really damn hot but being in fact normal?

 

And what is your reasoning for the Ryzen R7 1700 instead of the R7 1700x?

The 1700 overclocks as well as the 1700x for cheaper. There's literally no reason to get a 1700x and 1800x.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

@DocSwag

 

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
