There’s no getting around that AMD has a strong workstation core design on their hands. This bodes well for users who need compute at a lower cost, especially when you can pick up an eight-core Ryzen 7 at half the cost of the competition.

Overall, I feel that the 1700X and 1700 are excellent processors for their price; basically 1800Xs that need a bit of overclocking. The 1700X and 1700 are the 8-core CPUs for the masses.
