also do u think I should try and stretch for a 1700 ? 

Would you pay 110$ for 2 extra cores? I don't think it's a great deal.

or posibly the asrock board

will let ya know end of this week on the ASRock x370 K4 and r5 1600 can easily go 3.9 on 1.375VCore.

buildzoid was in big favor of the VRM and overclocking, just that their UEFI wastes a lot of time for serious overclocking.

they said they'd 'streamline' some of the bugs..

No difference in gaming terms then?

Are you currently running the 1600 ?

Not from what I've heard, I'm buying the 1600.

 

The very low minimums are slightly worse with the 6 core, and slightly worse with the 4 cores than the 6 cores, but the extra 2 cores seemingly add less and less to gaming performance

 

As of average frames, you might drop 5 to 10 frames from the 8 cores in SOME games, and in most its within the margin of error (same almost)

From what I have seen the Ryzen processors are less of a bottleneck than the i7-4790k, so I believe it should be fine.
