R5 1600 @ 3.9 GHz has stonking performance and value compared to Intel's current offerings, nice to see this bundle on sale.

8 Pack · 14 Apr 2017 at 21:25

Yeah very solid performance for the money.

any 1800 bundles on the pipeline. Currently looking to replace my 5820k. Mainly for motion graphics and gaming.

No point of making an 1800 or 1800x bundle. The 1700 cpu overclocked is equally capable at a better price point. I made these bundles available several weeks ago.

See this thread for info on 1700 bundles:

Cracking stuff. Will be upgrading to this on purchase day, no sweat!

KingSimcock · 16 Apr 2017 at 17:32

Looks awesome, I have a ryzen 5 1600x on my wishlist for when I'm ready to start upgrading. I've never overclocked before and not sure if I need to, even though I want too because I love to learn. Would going for a 1600 be a better decision. However I will need a micro atx board, would that make things more complicated?

Wucked · 16 Apr 2017 at 18:40

Lol. 8Pack, you tart

Respect though, it takes hard work to maintain a bod like that.

So far for me no really solid high end matx boards available. Asus need to make a gene like board on X370.

The 1600 is easy to oc to beat 1600X cpu in terms of performance.

Awesome, ill try my hand at an overclock then once some decent matx appear.

look good packages - you might want to check the Asus product description though ....

""- AMD Ryzen 1600: Providing Simultaneous multithreading Octacore (16 threads) technologies with excellent overclocking headroom a staggering 16MB of L3 Cache for responsive and efficient computing.""

???!

It's 6 core 12 thread for sure.

Joeyuk · 27 Apr 2017 at 22:32

Finally got my new PC built with this bundle. After problems with delivery and then a faulty ram stick it been an annoying few weeks but finally it's running well with the OC in place.

Looking forward to getting the ram upto full speed.

threetone · 28 Apr 2017 at 09:22

Would any of the midi cases work with this? Looking for a new pc build so having to source everything.
Don't really care what the case looks like.

8 Pack · 28 Apr 2017 at 12:44

Yeah sure.

This one is a solid case for the money.

All this Ryzen bundles are making my wallet tingle, How is general performance for gaming.
Friend of mine asking it noctua fans on the cooler would make a difference to temps and sound

DarkHorizon472 · 1 May 2017 at 20:23

Not a bundle but my 1700 on stock maxes out my rx480 at 1080p in BF1 with an average of about 30% CPU. Not sure about older games.

Performance is very good, you're gonna be GPU bound unless you have a 1080ti or something.

Noctua fans are overpriced - the fans that come with are just as good.
