For those who have made the switch from Intel to AMD, what are your thoughts? Gaming performance in particular I am interested in from the 1700 overclocked I know current games are not fully utilising the additional cores but hopefully that will change. Feedback and comments welcome :)
 
Excellent comments. Thanks so far.. It is very interesting to read that re BF1 and BF4 too. I plan on gaming at just over 1080p. SOld my PC in November which was running a 4790k at 4.6 stable with 8GB ram. I must admit, I am swaying towards the Ryzen platform.
 
Again, thanks for everyone who has commented. It's a case of building from scratch LGA1151 I7 7700k or totally changing and going down the AMD route. What I do like about AMD is they have said they will support the particular platform for years to come. Tough decision, but money is a factor and wanting more "bang for buck" so to speak, more cores... less money?! I just hope that newer games will FULLY take advantage of the additional cores.
 
I played Arma 3 which I know is cak in terms of programming and use of multi core systems so i doubt i'll see any difference in terms of FPS or performance going from a 4790k. Wish I kept hold of the PC in a way, but it was getting on a bit.......
BF1 seems to use Ryzen quite well looking at youtube videos.

Smooth gameplay means more than FPS. As long as there isnt a drop in FPS that shows lag, im happy with that
