good for you
we know you're a intel-shill anti-shilling

stop making this thread.

>when AMD is so shit that someone who isn't salty about buying one looks like b8

Bought an i7 a year ago and now feel like I've been raped.

Yeah, should of bought 3700x next year.

You must be new. This is been going on with Apple for years.
They make threads to make themselves look like obvious shills for a particular company, just to make people hate them and said company.

I have a 1800x
I regret nothing

Bought the i5 6600k awhile back I genuinely feel like it was a mistake. Hitting 90%-100% usage.

I got a 1700 a year ago, and my only regret is my shitty, terrible Gigabyte ab350 gaming mobo. I was too new when I built my PC and everyone said mobo doesn't really matter, so my 3000mhz ram is stuck at 2133mhz because the bios doesn't support higher ram clocks, and the RGB fan color can't be changed from red because the mobo lacks the RGB header. Relatively minor issues, maybe I should just buy a new mobo

I almost bought a ryzen to replace my old xeon but I don't want a new board and ram; too expensive.

I got a 1700x and I regret it deeply, even with all the bios updates I still can't get anything higher than 2666 in 16gb*4 configuration on the Asus Prime X370 Pro and anything over 3.8ghz.

Got a 8400

8600k couple weeks ago and I regret nothing

I got 1600 with Prime X370 pro and could overclock my 2400GHz RAM to 2933GHz. But I see no point for that since improvement is minimal.

>over 3.8GHz
Sorry but it seem you don't win the silicon lottery. B T W, what's your PSU?

Corsair CX650M
I'm basically stuck with everything as is unless AMD releases a 10/12core that is compatible with my motherboard. 2000 series is not worth upgrading to and unless the 3000 series gets 10/12 core or 4.8~5.0ghz without getting a golden chip, it wouldn't be worth the costs to upgrade either. Paying hundreds of dollars for a negligible couple hundred mhz over the same number of cores is a waste of money.

With DDR5/PCIE4.0 right around the corner, AM4 might not ever get a CPU worth upgrading to from the 1700x before requiring a platform upgrade.

I hate my 6600k in battlefield.

bought mine 2.5 years ago and it's more than enough right now.
when did you buy yours and where are you hitting 100%?

Ehh.
As long as it works, I won't upgrade.

I got a R5 1600 last year and I regret it throughly.
Multithreading is a meme. It's always a single core hitting 100% while rest are sitting at 1-2%.
We had FX and 6+ core processors for a decade yet nobody was able to optimize for them. I should have gone with a cheap i5 with 5ghz and all my woes would be gone.

Sorry to hear that because I'm very happy with my R5 1600. Rendering and encoding is pretty fast compare to my old 4 core CPU.

Nah I have an 8400 with my 1080 Ti and tho I get high FPS there is too much stuttering. 100% CPU usage in every game I play.

Are ryzen apus a good value?
I've an a10 6800k and it's getting old.

yeah thats the problem , if all your doing is running a game , it will run well and smooth on a quad core cpu , but as soon as your doing any background tasks , it can really cause stutter as the cpu trys to keep up.

6 core cpu's have a lot more room the breath in this aspect.

the a10 6800k was garbage when it launched.

Yea I said I have an 8400, which is 6 cores already.... It has nowhere to breathe in my gaming sessions.

I did too in Jan. Will see what the 3700 brings to decide if I should upgrade. Possibly no need though.

I heard bad things about some motherboard. Went with the MSI B350M Mortar as it listed my ram as compatible up to 3200

I keep my 1700 at 3.6GHz. It does 3.7 but no need really for my use case.

I think they are. I've built two people budget machines using them. One with a 2200g and one with a 2400g. Difference is minimal on games but the 2400g happened to be on sale when I got it.

Running 1700 @ 3,9 ghz and ram @ 3200 mhz.

Feels good man.

>Corsair CX650M
Not sure if that PSU suitable for OC.

Some of those perform better than the 1030 wih proper ram. Using them as placeholder for 7nm would be perfect.

I had to push it at least 3.8ghz to get comparable single threaded and gaming performance to my original 4C/8T Xeon @3.8ghz on all cores.

It's not a PSU issue, plenty of people saying their 1700x only hitting 3.7~3.8ghz.
The CX650M is based on the same well reviewed CWT platform as it's CX750M V2 brother.

Bought the 2600x and am very happy with it.

What do you use it for? If you get something like gtx 1070 ti + 1440p display you get GPU bounded in almost all games.
