AMD YD180XBCAEWOF Ryzen 7 1800X Processor

Well I can definitely recommend this CPU if your workload is based on multi core application like VM s CAD or anything workstation related. It's also good for gaming , streaming and video editing of course, but keep in mind that some applications don't use all the cores and that will seem slower than the counter-part intel i7 witch this competes against.So if you re looking for something strictly for gaming go for the i7 or even i5 , those perform better at higher refresh rates <100hz , but if you don't play on high refresh rate monitor and you have some work to do that involves a lot of loading and you can take advantage of all the cores(in my case game dev) then I would recommend this, stable and powerful.10/10 , great purchase , everything is as it should be and with this discount is a no brainer.Keep in mind that the new Ryzen 2 refresh will come in this April so if you are patient , you might get better performance for the same money.

AMD Ryzen 7 1800X. It is great to have a truly fast CPU in a system with plenty of memory. This CPU handles 64GB of DDR4 RAM, which is what we have installed. It works very well and with water-cooling does not get even warm most of the time and that is at 3,600 MHz. We are pleased we chose this model, it is a superb processor, AMD have once more at least caught up with Intel, and at a more reasonable price. 16 processing threads allow serious virtual computing, in excess of the number of guest operating system we are ever likely to need. Highly recommended.

Bought this cpu a few months ago because I didn't want to have to upgrade my motherboard to get a 2700 as had originally planned. I do regret that decision but only because it would be better future proofing. I currently have this cpu over clocked to 4ghz on air cooling and it runs at acceptable temps, it runs everything I throw at it without issue except a little slow down when streaming cemu games in 4k through my shield to my TV but I think that's more my cemu config than cpu deficiencies.Great cpu, particularly now its dropping in price.

Motherboard: Asus PRIME X370-PROMemory: Corsair Vengeance DDR4-3200 16GB (2 x 8GB)Cooler: Thermaltake Contac Silent 21 w/ Akasa ViperGraphics: MSI GeForce 1070Ryzen has had its share of teething problems. I've heard about the struggles that some have had to get their memory clocking fast, and indeed I had to put a little work in too.For reasons that elude me, my motherboard cannot automatically determine the timings of my RAM unless I set the BIOS to XMP mode. The defaults it comes up with prevent the system from going above the BIOS default RAM frequency of 2133 MHz. However, the XMP mode would run the RAM at the maximum rated speed (3200 MHz) which the system isn't capable of. Based on what I've read, this is a common issue and most people can't quite reach 3200 MHz, settling for 2933 MHz.In order to get my RAM ticking away even slightly faster than 2133 MHz, I had to do the following in the BIOS:(1) Forced the RAM voltage to the rated voltage (in my case 1.35V; the BIOS was trying to default it to 1.2V)(2) Manually set the RAM timings (the BIOS also defaulted these wrong; note that the XMP BIOS feature will probably tell you your RAM's timings on-screen, plus it's printed on the RAM itself)(3) Incrementally tried each faster RAM speed until the system became unstable (I couldn't go above 2933 MHz)I tested my memory stability using the memtest86 tool. If a certain RAM speed could survive a whole pass without throwing errors I deemed it stable, though arguably it should be run for much longer (overnight perhaps). Prime95 is another stability testing tool that I would recommend.My first impression with regards to temperatures was worrying; I noticed the CPU running much hotter than I would have expected given its TDP, but then I noticed an AMD community article about how the Ryzen 7 1700X and 1800X have their temperatures offset by 20 degrees (why this is, I don't understand). The Ryzen Master software gives you the correct temperature; with other temperature software you will need to do the subtraction yourself. The maximum I've been able to hit is about 58 degrees Celsius with Prime95; pretty impressive.I've seen a lot of benchmarks from big YouTube tech channels that paint the 1800X as very hot; I suspect they didn't know about the temperature offset. AMD really did mess that one up; had they been more proactive in telling people about it, or not adding an offset at all, it would have made Ryzen seem more appealing, I think.If you prefer to use a balanced power mode on Windows, know that there is one specifically written for the Ryzen CPUs that you can download from the AMD community website.I neglected to do many benchmarks to determine an actual difference to me, but others have done benchmarks that show that while the 1800X is not the fastest CPU, it is fast and great value. It did occur to me to check single-threaded performance; this CPU isn't close to the Intel i7-7700K which holds the crown at time of writing, but I felt that double the cores and great value made the 1800X a better choice going into the future.Something that surprised me is that the 1800X and, perhaps more importantly the motherboard, work with Linux (Fedora 25) out of the box, despite being so new!I'm glad that there is competition in the CPU market once again; everyone benefits and I'm looking forward to seeing what AMD and Intel will do in the next couple of years.EDIT: it's worth pointing out, since many don't, that setting your memory frequency above 2666 MHz when using this CPU is an *overclock*, which apparently voids your CPU warranty (even if your memory is capable of going faster, as is true in my case). Just something to bear in mind! Be sure to look up the maximum supported memory frequency on your CPU's specification.

Impressive performance at a great price. These were the main reasons that led me to choose AMD processors.If you compare the RYZEN 7 1800X with some other processors Intel that are available in the market you get a better price/performance ratio.I know that I could count with an amazing performance, but the most important aspects that really surprise me were, heating and energy consumption. The processor is a lot colder that the last generation of AMD and even than many similar Intel processors, and spends in some cases half the energy that the old FX series.

It is no good if you want to upgrade to windows 11 also my games freeze

Capable of close to top end gaming (being used during end of 2018)This part is the bottleneck of my current PC, so is the perfect system to push this processor in its maximum paces.Runs ARMA3 PUBG, City Skylines, Planet Coaster, Wreckfest all on top settings with plenty going on.Running with a 1080ti GTX, 32gb 3200mhz RAM and installs all on SSD's.Apparently this is overclock able and I haven't even looked into needing it yet.

This processor is a powerhouse.I simply cannot express how amazing this is.I have upgraded from an I5 4970k, not only does this processor beat my old on gaming performance, but it also makes any form of multitasking on my machine a dream. I do not get ANY stutters on any of my games, no matter what I am doing.Honestly this is amazing.I will update my review in the future if I have any issues at all.
