yup, especially streaming that the 1700x will beat the 2600x

I have a 1300x. it does me very well for what it is oc to 4.0GHz, but i have a 1080ti with it. newegg has the 1700x for $150 and the 2600x on sale for $220. i know that the 1700x is 14nm and the 2600x is 12nm. my mobo is an asus prime x370 pro flashed to except the 2000 series ryzen cpus. it the 2600x worth the $70 difference? and i am thinking of streaming a little with some friends. the 1700x is an 8c/16t cpu and the 2600x is 6c/12t. i'm not planning on oc any more than 4.0GHz if i would need to. thanks

How much is a 2700 non X?

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.9 Ghz  | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 |  PaliT GTX 1050Ti  |  8gb Kingston HyperX Fury @ 2933 Mhz  |  Corsair CX550m  |  1 TB WD Blue HDD


Inside some old case I found lying around.

1700X is at its killer price, I won't buy 2nd gen Ryzen with this price gap.

$160 for the noon x

So the $70 price gap and difference in performance isn't worth the 2600x?

@kampfer5191 if it helps out in anyway, my latest build is with a 1700x, and it's been working out great for me.  Especially at the price it's at now, certainly one of the best options out there from a price to performance stand point.

thanks for the personal experience feedback. that's great to hear how it performs. are you overclocked at all? or just the default oc setting?

I've got it overclocked to 4.1GHz, on all 8 cores.  That's pushing the voltage pretty hard, up to 1.425, so I don't often keep it that high all the time.  Right out of the box, without tweaking voltage, it overclocked stable at 3.9GHz.  Bumping the voltage to 1.35 got me to 4.0Ghz. The 4.0GHz setting is where I keep it at most of the time, seems to do great.
