Were you told the time scale for the gigabyte?

Wow! Impressive!
Anyone here a fan of For Honor, or planning to get it? Ryzen's minimum - the inner bar - are fantastic.

Loving the mins i do hope to see more in depth testing re this ...
Had a reply lengthy email from Rich @ eurogamer ...they received there kit from AMD very late and are testing hence the delay which will resume after this weekend...
i quote
"I'm willing to give AMD the benefit of the doubt though because I feel a new microarchitecture deserves deep dive testing,"
Looking forward to this

This will only get worst for the 4 core platform has time goes on! Bookmark this post in a year or two time Reyzen 1700x will still be competing with Intel's latest CPU at that time!!

In that GTA screen cap you can clearly see the R7 still has some give left in it. The 7700 is a couple percent from 100% cpu load, the R7 still has a good 20-30% left in it.
Yeah. It's not time to buy a 4 core unless you're on a budget Imo. What those results say is the 7700k is close to bottlenecking the card. Overclocking the gpu there would do nothing.

Good and gives a great result
but i am not a fan of this in game user control results too many variables i prefer set run benchmarks that are doing the exact same thing at the same time in the run.
The main issues seems to be unfinished BIOSs, and Firmware, and Windows's Thread Scheduler not handling Ryzen correctly. Causing all sorts of varying performance between reviewers.
We're still best off to wait at least a month to see what happens; although despite the little snags in gaming performance AMD is the current leader in Price to performance I believe.
Want a decent 8 core workstation and game as a hobby? Why bother with Intel's 8 core; even if it can overclock higher, the cost greatly offsets the performance difference and value.
You can get the CPU with a cooler that'll allow it to reach 3.9Ghz, a top tier motherboard, and good RAM for less than the Intel 8 core.
That is weird. I don't remember my [email protected] running at nearly 100% cpu usage and that's at around 100fps maxed out.This will only get worst for the 4 core platform has time goes on!

Jealous of those who have this weekend to play 
I have all the parts for my build apart from the ASUS Crosshair and 1800X. Arriving Monday, quite excited! Busy at work so won't get much time in the evenings but will have it built and installed Monday then Overclock next weekend.
How's the other ASUS Crosshair users getting on?
Also those using 32GB RAM?

& a decent GFX card ssd & case on top of that
Agree AMD's red wine tastes better then Intels Weak Ale

All arrived, and building atm. Even came with RGB cooler xD. Very pretty boxes too lol 
Even my i5 3570k is already starting to run behind the 3770k just because it has no hyperthreading.

GTA 5 has always pushed CPUs to the highest.

Yes the RGB cooler and the box are fantastic really does make Intels box and stock cooler look like .....
Love the start of this
That doesn't seem right. My 7700k operates at 30-40% even with my 1080 maxed. Take that screen grab not only with a pinch of salt but disregard it!This will only get worst for the 4 core platform has time goes on!
