Reminder that the 1800X, 1700X and 1700 are all sold out and

>>59209144
people are already cancelling their orders so...
not to mention AMD misled their fans again.

redpill me on these cpus. im actually lookin to throw together a build now. was gonna go witha 6700k but then saw these on passmark

seems good price performance no?

>We did it.

Who did what?

>>59209185
>people are already cancelling their orders so...
>that's why there's no CPUs from first party sellers anymore

Were you called special when you were young?

This isn't surprising, it's the performance a 6900k for half the price and much lower power consumption.
They're only not all that good for games, but for workstation shit they're efficient and great value.

>>59209213
wait for a week or 2 for bios updates to go out, shit is buggy as fuck

>>59209213
They're good chips if you need a workstation. If you're looking for gaming you should really go for a chip with fewer cores but they can do that too.

>>59209555
>>59209509
should i just get a 6700k and call it a day?

>>59209667
For fucking what? Jesus everyone has something they mostly do with their computer, faceshit, email, browsing, gaming, rendering, etc etc.

WHAT

>>59209667
Depends on your needs.

If you are a gamer, yes, if not, depends.

Australia still has 1700 and 1800x in stock
Only the 1700x sold out

>Who did what?

OP is pretending he had a small effect on the real world. He's obviously delusional.

>>59209700
just gaming. only caveat is i play games in 5760x1080 (triple screen) a lot

i don't really do anything else but game

is the 7700k better for gaming?

and ill be using a 980ti until the 1080ti comes out

>>59209722
At that resolution you can get a 7700k or a 1700x and you'd get the same FPS.

>>59209144
AMD scammed a million people

There will be class action lawsuits about this

Intel really blew intel the fuck out with their high end ryzen chip. Thing is a God send for workstation and production workloads. Prepare for everyone to drop Intel the next few years if Intel still wants to be a jew and keep paying off prebuilt manufacturers to only ship Intel based systems instead of dropping cpu prices.

>>59209722

For right now, the 7700k is the better buy.

In a year from now, two years from now 4 cores might not be enough.

Which means new motherboard, and chip.

With AMD that means jist a chip.

The choice is yours.

>>59209752
cool i think im gonna go with the 7700k. really don't want to deal with issues with the amd side of things as the chipset/mobos are new

gonna start gooling and figure out most stable motherboard that can max overclock the 7700k. i guess its not hard to hit 5ghz

>>59209667
Yeah. Everyones just splitting hairs over hypothetical work flows and even at it's best it really isn't saving you hundreds of dollars worth of time unless your using this at your fucking office doing 8 hours of real work.

>>59209812
is there something better than a 7700k i should get for gaming?

>>59209833
No, it's the best

>>59209833
4790k

>This fellow is making less than $12k/year before taxes with his Patreon

nuke us from orbit already

Be prepared to be disappointed.

>>59209894
if it can't so be it

just trying to find a super stable mobo

>>59209213
>>59209509
Reasonable advice.

Many newer games show good scaling with HT and more cores, which should theoretically make the 1800X faster on a number of titles.
Plus even with its current issues giving shit average fps, its min FPS and how smooth they run while 6700k/7700k stutter, can be better than higher fps.

I'm confident this shit'll get fixed, but I'd still wait.

I had an Asus Z170 build with 6700K build that BSOD'd every couple days because of terrible BIOS support.
It's not AMD's problem, it's the motherboard BIOS fucking up.
