Do you need peripherals?

Is that 1250 in USD? (Have to be sure)

What country are you in and do you have any preferences for merchants?

I'm turning to the dark side

Intel save me

Nice build! Though you could drop to a 1600 and OC, to save some money. It'll also save you from needing an aftermarket cooler, unless you want to run a pretty high overclock. You could use the money saved to get some 3000-3200MHz RAM, as that helps Ryzen almost as much as overclocking the actual CPU.

Huh. Didn't think memory speeds above 2400MHz were noticeable. I picked the 1600X purely because there was about $100 headroom and that extra 400MHz looked quite attractive, but you're right, it's definitely not necessary.

The X series are just slightly higher binned, AFAIK. They're pretty much for people who wont OC at all, and want the highest clock speed, or extreme overclockers who want the best CPU they can possibly get, and have the budget for it. And yeah, I saw somewhere that Higher memory speeds are almost as important as the actual core clock, because of the way the special "infinity fabric" works.

Oh, I just assumed the X meant overclockable, much like K in Intel processors. I'm very new to the AMD side of things, been an Intel fanboy since I knew what that Core 2 Duo Inside sticker on the family PC meant.

Yeah, same here. Though I'm all aboard the Ryzen train now, since it's an insane value. The entire Ryzen lineup is overclockable, from the R5 1400 to the R7 1800X. The difference is core count, core clock, and slightly different binning for each CPU. At least from what I've been able to figure out. At least it isnt as confusing as Intel's lineup, as they're got Skylake, Kaby Lake, Kaby Lake X, Skylake X, i9, whatever. AMD's FX CPUs are pretty ancient at this point, so they don't have a bunch of old/new lineups to confuse everyone. Just Ryzen and Threadripper so far, with EPYC for servers.

Holy balls, ok, that explains why everyone on this forum is obsessed with these things. Not sure if I'll brave it and trust AMD to catch me by making my first non-scrapheap build a Ryzen one, but it's leaning towards that now. I definitely don't trust the upcoming LGA2066 platform, it's either 1151 or Ryzen.

Yup. Intel's i9s look to be good CPUs, but they're only for peeps with a ton of cash, and it's easy to get mixed up with the rest of the lineup. Though 1151 is still great, especially the i7 6700K and 7700K, they just don't have the bang for the buck Ryzen does.

Looking at prices in my region, mindblown. R7 1700 is $435 AUD, a little under the price of an i7-7700K. Except it has 8 cores. Plus whatever the AMD equivalent of hyperthreading is. That's like... $54.375 per core, $27.1875 per thread. Damn.

Yup. Although, for pure gaming performance, the 7700K wins with it's awesome clockspeed, Ryzen whips it for anything multithreaded.

Now I want one purely to run Cinebench on kek
