Check this video out guys. The Ryzen 7 1700 is essentially the EXACT SAME CHIP as the 1700X and 1800X, and CAN Overclock to the same max limit of 4.1Ghz of the 1800X (max stable OC achieved by everybody on the internet)... Tbh, Only a total idiot would buy the 1700x and the 1800x

They're definitely binning I think, if ones lucky with his 1700 then it's gonna reach 1800X levels.

f they're binning, wouldn't that mean that there'll be less of the better grade chips? Unless they're producing a lot of the higher grade chips? Which I wouldn't have thought likely this early on.

Almost everybody on the internet is able to achieve a 3.8-4Ghz oc on the 1700 on air. It's not really a big deal and not that difficult either. I just don't understand the $500 1800X sku, it's an abomination and it shouldn't exist.

It shouldn't exist but I do think AMD will be binning otherwise it doesn't make sense.

How long will it take you to import Ryzen 7 1700 with B350 board?
I think everyone should wait till the bios and platform becomes stable, or there would be a lot of warranty claims. I have seem many reviewers running into these issues.

In short, the Windows threaad-schedulur does not line up with the AMD Ryzen architecture.
Back in the days when intel introduced Hyper-threading many similar issues have been adressed. From here onwards it will be a waiting game as we'll have to wait and see how Microsoft will address this matter and see what effect these two factors will have on the slightly dissapointing game performance results. But sure, it is terrific news that Microsoft found an issue and is correcting it, let us hope that Microsoft sorts out the scheduler and cache issues as soon as possible. Maybe the upcoming Patch Tuesday update scheduled for March 14 will bring this coveted patch.

It's not Windows scheduler to blame - AMD

AMD busts Ryzen performance myths, clearing Windows 10 from blame | PCWorld

Idk... AMD half answered it (almost like they didn't want to blame Microsoft [emoji14] ), they didn't comment on the inter-CCX latency that is sometimes caused when the scheduler can keep things on one CCX but switches to the other one when it shouldn't and that introduces quite a lot of latency.

    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
