AMD Ryzen R7 1700 AM4 8-Core Processor Review
Memory Benchmarks
Memory Bandwidth
Memory latency was pretty good, even showing improvements in copy speed over the 1800X. I would note, though, memory issues are still a problem with Ryzen, so take these results with a pinch of salt, as we may need to retest in the future when updates are released.
Memory Latency
Just like the Ryzen 1800X, latency is quite high, it’s not a problem concerning real world performance as the figures are good, but this could certainly do with being improved in a future BIOS update.
Hard to take ANY of this seriously when you suspect thermal throttling at the end because of inadequate cooling. If the chip was throttling from the get go then every single bench mark was null.
Put a better cooler on and retest…
Huh? A 240mm CLC + one of the best conventional thermal compounds in the world is “inadequate cooling”?
Very first paragraph you wrote 1700X but you meant 1700. Didn’t read other comments to see if this has been mentioned.
He should listen you … Coz there are more typo errors …
Hard to take a article seriously when theres as many errors in it as this… one of the charts isn’t even right, and I’d question some of the results compared to the 1800X too.
maybe in may, ram issues cleared
Really bad review…
Only review that has a big difference between 1700 and 1800x OC. And the only review where the 1800x is at the top of the chart. And how does 2.5% of clock turns into + 12% performance?????
