Ryzen Buying Guide: R7 1700 vs. R5 1600 vs. R5 1400

why everyone review just new products, you should review one year old products

Some say b350 motherboard need bio update to run ryzen processor

As of today March 26th 2019 the ryzen 7 1700 is the same price as the 1600 or less I currently have the 1600 and it's really good but would it be worth the upgrade to get the 1700 I'm talking about gaming at 1080p for at least 3 years

Video: buy the 1600.. me: Buy's 1800x.

That really helped!!
Great job!

Im trying to build a gaming and multi tasking pc off used parts and I cant find a ryzen 5 1600/2600 to pair with my rx 580 4gb, would the ryzen 7 1700 be fine?

The difference r5 1600 and 1400 almost 50 dollars in my country, should I get the 1400? I only use for casual gaming and light editing
And my graphic card is rx580

1600 all day long!!!!

I just bought used R5 1600 149US$ combine with very cheap mobo 54US$ Asus Prime A320, upgrading from i5 2500 (non K) and i very impressed because huge performance increase, not only gaming but also productivity application..best price performance value i think

The 1700 is only 220 and is led so uh I'm getting that

The 1700 is worth it for audio engineers/music producers. Anyone who has ever tried to use a complex synth in Serum will know what I'm talking about (instant blue screen of death after playing one note on an FX 6300). Extra cores may not boost performance by much in video editing/gaming but 16 threads is a huge advantage over 12 in audio software.

It's so funny. I went to store. I was asking for i5 8400 or i3 8350k. They told me Ryzen is also good. I haven't checked Ryzen before. Then I bought a system with Ryzen 5 1600 and since I bought this computer I started watching videos and everyone is suggesting Ryzen 5 1600. I am feeling so good. Nice video btw.

Thanks for all of the wisdom, and knowledge that You share. You have an excellent channel. Respect

Glad I made a right choice. plus Asus made it easier with MB+CPU bundle with two AAA games (COD:WWII and latest Assassin Creed).
Since the publishing of this video, many applications and games got optimisation for high core CPus. Did you re-run any of this to see if true?

thank you

The last video game the t you show wasn't Total War Warhammer but the ridiculous Warhammer Dawn of War3 witch is the biggest mistake in the game hitory. And thank you for the video it helps me decide to buy the 1600x 6core processor :D

Hi what do you think for a low budget for gaming like overwatch, fornite,???..........COMPUTADORA AMD RYZEN 5 1400 + GIGABYTE GA-AB350-D3H + 8GB FURY 2400 MHZ + DISCO DURO 1TB + RADEON RX 560 4GB DDR5 + FUENTE 500 WATTS 80 PLUS + GABINETE EAGLE WARRIOR BLADE 3

No mention to what memory is used

You should include some benchmarks when live streaming on twitch. I’m leaning toward the 1700 because I’ll be live streaming and video editing and such. I’d love to see how these CPU’s preform while gaming and streaming

I'm thinking of getting the R5 1600 instead of the R7 1700 which will save me a lot of money and I can at least add more SSD storage. As for someone that wants to use this computer mainly for gaming and Maybe photoshop/illustrator once in a while, is it worth it? I don't really have multiple tabs open when doing work and If I video edit, it won't be anything major like 4k stuff. I'm still happy with using a 1080p HD screen.

Please make a video on which gtx 1070 ti to buy and 8n budget

You showd me wrong battlefield!

the bf1 video is actually bf4

LOL, maybe you need another 1080ti for SLI to show the difference between the 1600 and the 1700. That was my answer at least...

Haha that intro!

Are you doing this for coffee lake?

What Motherboard and PSU should I use for Ryzen 5 1600 and GTX 1060 6GB?

Thanks for the review, it was very useful, cheers from Brazil!

i love steve :D

“First up we have battlefield 1” uses battlefield 4 footage

I got the 1400 for 135 . Very happy with it 😁

says BF1, shows BF4

You said battlefield 1 yet I am pretty sure the video was 4

I'm about to buy that Ryzen 7. What kind of cooling do you suggest to get a stable 4.0GHz?

Also, if I was just a gamer, I'd go for the R5, but those Cinebench scores speak to me.

So what about 4k gaming?

Have you ran any tests comparing the 1600 and 1700 with twitch streaming and obs?

Rayzen 7 FTW

Everytime I see those shelves stuffed to the brim with hardware I'm wondering if those 'Sets/Studios' are dust free oO XD

Imma just get a r3 1200 for this year and wait for second gen r5 :p Second gen of a successful product is always the best hehe. My i5 2400 still doing fine these days.

now the games are bottlenecking the ryzen cpu's LOL iloveyou amd thank you so much

Isn't that Battlefield a 4 and not a 1 in the benchmark?

amazon is US so dont it work out more expensive

Which CPU will be useful in 5-6 years? Aren't games gonna start using 6 cores instead of 4 cores?

So...boring...

Hello Steve!!! I just invested in the >RYSEN 1600 with a MSI B350 motherboard and 16 GB DDR4 RAM

gtx 1080ti + r5 1600 any bottleneck ???!!!

So if you stream you need 1700 if you just game you need 1600. I wonder what you'd recommend for 60 fps 1080p. For me cheapest is fx 9590 since I only need the cpu and not a system overhaul.
200£ is what the fx should cost with the cooler while for ryzen I'd need around 400£ due to new motherboard and ram (I'm on 16gb ddr3 currently) and I'm not sure it's worth it for 60 fps

I love your videos but the intro was just .... demeaning of your level of content
