I know a lot of people are waiting for that ITX to finally come out.

No sense in waiting for new intel. Mobo it self gonna cost $300+ so you're looking at around $600 for cheapest cpu+ mobo combo. I honestly don't get why anyone would pay aroud $200-$1000 more when you can get similar performance with amd counterparts.

I just bought the 1700 from Frys last week for $280. Is the 1700X enough of an step up from 1700 to be worth $20 extra and a trip back to store to return the 1700?

Woohoo.... Been waiting on a sale again of the 1700X ON ebay for months. Had $250 of EBAY gift cards to use (had to convert Best Buy Reward Zone certificates before they expired).... So in essence got a 1700X for $ 46.

RYZEN 7 build coming along slowly but have been accumulating parts on sale on Slickdeals. Just need a Motherboard and memory now

Not worth the hassle IMO. Note that the 1700X doesn't come with a cooler, and if you are overclocking it's not a big deal anyways.

If you want to OC w/watercool you probably want the 1700X, if you're ok with stock cooler you get the 1700 and take what little OC you can do on the stock cooler. That's basically the gist of it I think.

Or just wait for the 2nd iteration of Ryzen. Oh, but wait, you can wait for whatever Intel is brewing after that. But wait...wait for whatever AMD's response is to that.......just buy what suits your needs. Regardless, this is a good deal on a Ryzen.

I mean problem with 1700x and 1800x is not temp but voltage wall, past 4ghz you have to jump significantly higher.

Keep waiting so you can overpay for Intel. Hold your breath.

These statements have become the new "does it have HDMI" or "can it play Crysis" on slickdeals.

The Ryzens are perfectly good gaming chips. Open the internet. Yeah the 7700k get better low rez performance where it doesn't matter, the higher the rez the less the gap. It becomes GPU limited. Anything over 60fps/hz is gravy anyway.

https://www.hardocp.com/article/2...ming_guide

"The narrative that "Ryzen is horrible for gaming," simply does not ring true overall. In most of our examples here today, we have seen Ryzen put up competitive framerates overall. Only when you start to look at 1080p gaming does there really seem to be any appreciable real world gaming differences."
