Yes, absolutely.

however, if you're only gaming, a Ryzen 1600 would be more suited, simply since it's cheaper, and the extra 2 cores of the 1700 don't matter at all for games.

Depends on what the PC is being used for, if it is gaming, what GPU do you own?

Autodesk CAD/Revit, Gaming, and some video editing, I own a gtx 1070
