Ryzen noob, need advice please

Ryzen is certainly more scatty. I actually locked my 3700X to 4.3GHz at 1.352v (all cores) - It's stable as hell, temps are better and its over 5200 in cinebench now!

Might be more scatty than the desktop Intel chips but not the HEDT x299 lot - my i7 7820X is all over the place voltage wise (Turbo boost 3.0 doesn't help to reduce the scattiness).

Oh, 100%. But the random voltages were what lead a lot to believe Ryzen was hot, as it has a scatty idle. As i say, once i locked it down, it was much, much cooler.
 
Well here's the finished build, aside from the SSD I forgot to turn around :p

The LED colour is CPU temperature, I find that kinda handy :) Obviously it can do all colours, but I like the green when idling.
