Came out 7 years ago. my god how time flies. i still remember when Ryzen CPUs came out, I fell it had been like 3-4 years only. back then that was the best money spent, and after 7 years you can still play and kick ass all game, again, great money spend back then.
I'm still rocking my FX-8350 as well an E3-1271 v3 (equivalent to i7 4790 non-K). The FX I bought new as an upgrade to my FX-4100. The E3 was an upgrade to the 4670K that was given to me when one of my kids upgraded. My graphics cards are an R9-280 that I bought with the 8350 and an RX-460 that was given to me by my kid as well. Yeah, I'm stuck playing older games, but fortunately there are a lot of great older games out there.
First custom gaming rig for me was a secondhand fx-6300 built around the time the first ryzens where out. Given that it was replacing a laptop running a i7 740qm I was quite happy. Currently running a secondhand ryzen 2600 build, but kept the fx-6300 build parts just in case something failed.
I'm happy with what I have. I dream of having a modern CPU/GPU, but will be happy with what I have. I'm getting older now and today's games hurt my brain anyways 🙂 I've been playing a few older console games using emulators, and that's more my speed 😀@@doublevendetta
I switched to AM4 because I got offered an R7 1700 in 2019 for £80. It was such a great position to be in as I had been trapped on 4th gen i7 with no upgrades for years. I'm still on AM4 and have a metric shed tonne of upgrades available, and, new products still coming out. BTW 8 core Zen chips can had here for 35-50 quid, if you need a cheap productivity machine that can game, well, there's a use case scenario.
how prices change eh. the 1700 is like £35 in cex with a 2600 coming in at £32. i dont know what a 1700 would be like(might buy one), but as an owner of an 8 core ryzen laptop(4700u) you cant go wrong with 8 cores. 1st & 2nd gen so cheap now you could build a nice budget mid range gamer
@@thesilentgametestr For sure hehe, for strict gaming the 2600 is the better chip, lower latency, fewer stutters etc. You only buy the 1700 if you need the extra cores for productivity. A 2600 on a B450 PCB can drive a 2080ti perfectly fine, and that's still a pretty sweet gaming PC. I swapped the 1700 out for an R5 5500, perfectly good enough for my B450 board.
ok. I just visited your website for the first time. I love the fact that you have something in every and i mean every price point. I will be purchasing two PC's from you in the near future for my grand babies.
Hello, greetings from Germany. My first Ryzen was an R5 2600 & RX 570 8Gb. Before Christmas I upgraded my AM4 system for the last time. Now 5800X3D and RTX4070 with 32Gb RAM is in PC, and I hope it lasts at least 3 years.
Im going to be getting a 5800X3D eventually as well to pair with my 4070 and also get an aio cpu cooler. that should last well over 3 years, possibly 10
Zen 1 is still very usable for most, but unless you can find them dirt cheap like under $50 used, it's not worth it. Ryzen 4500s are readily available new under $80, and are significantly higher performance.
Not worth it at all. Even 5000 series 2nd hand is verry cheap now a days. They spend 150$ on a 1700x and b450 motherboard. But for 150$ you can easy get a ryzen 5 5600 and b550 motherboard on the 2nd hand market. And its 2x/3x times s fast in most games on 1080p.... so not worth it at all.
yes. I worry about that the Toasty bros are not able to think budget anymore. People who are used to very high-end hardware always refer to A320 and B450 and completely forget that there's a entire generation of hardware that is now cheaper than even older hardware. because of how fast DDR5 and PCIe5.0 came about. @@ZipKroon
This is essentially the pc I built in 2017 only with a gtx1070 instead of the 1660super, still runs everything really well. I remember when Cyberpunk came out everyone had so many issues and I just snuck by with this build no problem. All my editing and gaming is 1080p anyways, because that’s what most people view content at still. I have been thinking about upgrading to 3rd gen, but I still don’t feel forced too. I’d probably put the money towards a new gpu instead.
Man i remeber getting a 1600 and i was so hyped, sold that build completely and built a 2600 and slowly upgraded that to a 5700x build. Time, what a concept
My first Ryzen was a 1700, bought at release. I've built and given away systems with a 1600 and a 1500X. I still have the 1700, but it's been out of service for a few years. I'm on this video because I'm planning to bring it back into use and there are no B350 boards to be had (I don't trust a used board, nor do I want to deal with ALIExpress). So I'm going for an ASRock B450M Steel Legend board. On the ASRock website, the description says the board supports Ryzen 2000, 3000, etc., but it doesn't list 1000 series. But in the list of supported CPUs, I find the 1700 is there and has been validated on "All" BIOS versions. So I'm gonna buy that board and go for it. Seeing you guys run a 1700X on a B450 without any issues is encouraging.
I remember graduating from my FX system to my first Ryzen build with this chip...and never looked back. I've stayed on Ryzen ever since and am looking forward to the next upgrade when my 5800X3D isn't getting it anymore.
I had a Ryzen 5 1600 from launch until a couple years ago when I upgraded to a 5800x. It made a huge impact over the 8 core FX cpu i had prior, even with a gtx 970. That 1600 is still going strong in my sister-in-laws pc now.
Just put together a R7 1700 non X its not bad got a RX 580 8gb on e bay for cheap had some drives laying around a old oem case i had got some cheap 2666 ddr4 on ebay a cheap thermaltake white rated 700 watt psu new at memory express and finally on new egg i got a MSI b450 pro max II for cheap and now i got a decent low to med gaming setup for under 500 as well i am happy with it and was happy to see this video on my feed to see how mine compared to yours
how much could a pc cost to stream at 1080p minimium and have around 144+fps !!!!! my budget is around 800£ for my first pc, i want to stream at good quality and my game that i play doesnt really consume much so what do you guys think would be the best things to buy????
Recently bought Ryzen 5 2600, b450, Rx 580 8gb, 16gb ram and other nice goodies for about 250$, I’m from EU thoe, planing to super charge it with X3D Chip and maybe a 4070
Im still rocking a Ryzen 5 1600 AF 3.7GHz, an Asrock B450M Steel Legend Micro ATX and a Zotac RTX 3050 Twin Edge OC. Im rocking my Ryzen 5 1600 AF since 2020 and upgraded my gt 1030 to a RTX 3050 in August 2022.
I was running a 2600 w/RX590 and my son a 2400G w/4GB RX480 for years until a few months ago and gave him the 2600 and upgraded mine to a 5600 and bought us both RX 6650XTs. Then 2 weeks ago I decided to go all out on his with a Montech king 95 pro in white Ryzen 7600 on an Aorus Elite AX Ice MB and Asrock phantom gaming RX 7900XT.
I think you guys are on to something of what could be a interesting series, hear me , I recently built a ryzen 5 2600 with 16g 3200 mhz ram paird with and don't laugh a gtx 760 , I found drivers from nvida for it, ran heavens benchmark score was 1675 with max fps 144 with a low of 29 for a average 66.5 fps 1080p high quality settings and the gpu temp maxed out at 78c... it played smite diablo 3 and pub g no problem!!! Them old systems will shock some!! Any ways live the ch and the vids gg
Recently snagged an ax370 board with an 1800x in it and 16gb vengeance kit for $70. The online seller thought something was wrong with the board because it kept shutting off, but I noticed in the pics he had a wraith stealth on it lol. He was trying to cool an 1800x with a stealth - hilarious! I put the only spare cooler I had with a retention bracket on. It was an old stock cooler for a phenom II. It works great lol. Highest temp is 73C, but man the 1800x is so damn slow! It is pitiful. Seriously, a 4th gen i7 can kick its ass (not at multicore but in fps terms).
Got a ryzen 5 1600x for 25$ about 6 months ago, paired it with a gtx 1070 and I couldn't be happier. Sure the cpu is a bottleneck for the gpu in some scenarios, but thats why i bought a b450 motherboard - the upgrade path. When i was building this pc i was on a tight budget, but if i ever want to upgrade, i can buy a r5 3600 or 3600x , a r5 5600 or 5600x , and recently ive been looking into the new r7 5700x , if i would ever want to future proof myself.
Just bought one a few days ago for 25 bucks after I wrecked my i5-4690k. I am pretty hyped how it will perform at 1080 since I already got +50 fps in ER and BG3 with settinge on high/ultra with the i5 + 1666s.
I have a similar PC with a 1660 super and Ryzen 3 3100 (similar to 1600 AF/2600) and got to say for these older GPUs like GTX 10 series and even 20 these CPUs are still plenty
An i3-12100F outperforms the 1700x in both single and multi-threaded applications. You can get one new for $98 and the platforms only a couple of years old.
the benefit of ryzen is you can start with this cpu and upgrade to 5th gen ryzen with nothing more than a bios flash at the most, they’re even still releasing cpus for AM4
You guys are the best been watching you for a lot of years now and I have learned a lot from you guys I even learned how to build pcs and code thanks to u guys now I’m in IT and for those who don’t know what IT is it’s basically information technology like programming and pc software building pcs and laptops gpu and cpu stuff I’m successful In it thanks to these guys the toasty bros❤ love the content man
I have my 1700x as a backup or second pc. I somehow bricked my x570 steel ledged installing a cooler so back to this one. B550M Bazooka, 1700x with single fan liquid cooler(runs at 32c most of the time), Giel 3600 ram, Crucial P3 Plus 1TB, Rx7600 and Seagate psu. Other than some instability with the XMP settings it runs very smooth in games I play. I looked up if this was still a good setup and this video popped up. Thanks!
I still have a Phenom 955BE in my storage PC. It can still run games you wouldn't think it could. I played Anthem on that CPU when it first came out. it was rough though lol
I have a friend who was running a ryzen 7 1700 non x and a 1080ti since the 1080ti launch days. He recently did a bios update and has a 3700x now. Still games great at 1080p but is starting to show its age with higher resolutions and settings. The 3700x could probably rock out with a 3080 nicely. Hes stretched that PC about as far as it can go. One more GPU upgrade and it will be in its final state like my old FX 8370 GTX 980TI system I rode until the wheels fell off. Its still in use to this day as my main HTPC. Dont ewaste your old PC's. Turn em into something new like a NAS or a HTPC
I’m still running a Ryzen 7 1700! I had a 1060 3gb in it when I built it in 2017. Then my buddy sold me his Vega 64 a few years ago when you couldn’t find a GPU. The same friend recently gifted me his “old” 3900X with a B550 mother board , with 128gb of ram… yes you read that right. I just play at 1080p so I’m thinking of getting 6700xt/6750xt to use with it, once I get the money saved up. … thoughts on that GPU/CPU combo? I’ll use the 1700 as the kid gaming computer.
I'm using the same MB with a Ryzen 5 1600 and a GTX 1060 6GB and it plays World of Tanks at 1440p ultra graphics at 90 FPS. I popped in a RTX 2060 6GB and got 125 FPS which for me was overkill. The computer is not overclocked as to run a cool and reliable.
so I have 2 gaming PC's I built ,my main pc is a 5800x with a 6700xt and 32 gb ram ,my project one I built ended up being a 1700x and a rx 580 with 32 gb ram also and to be honest I can play all my games on both just fine I mostly play destiny 2 and jedi survivor now days ,so I can say the 1700x is still a viable budget cpu in 2024
Its weird this first gen Ryzen video came out today. Yesterday I was walking past my bulk trash drop off at my apartments and saw a gaming pc laying there with no side pannel. Not really knowing what it was, I grabbed it. Didnt boot at first. One windows reinstall later I found out it was a Ryzen 3 1200 with a gtx 1060 3gb with 16 gb of ddr 4. Not an amazing PC but for free its totally worth. Also had 5 rgb fans lol. Its crazy what people just throw away.
only 1st gen ryzen i ever had was a 1200, i was more in to intel back then, so only older amd cpus i experimented with. i am however currently running a 1600 on a a320m board with 16gb ram stuck at 2400 which is my test bench system and with the oldish graphics cards im testing and the games im testing them with seem to be doing well processor wise. i do have a ryzen 3100 that replaced a 4500, but thats a budget non gaming system im selling. the only other ryzen i used desktop wise was the 3600 in a b450m board and that was a great chip. had it paired with a 1060 6gb at the time. i got the 1600 as it was cheap and im now considering upgrading the 3100 system with either a 1700 as it uses an a320m board also or a 2600 as the price difference for me(UK) is under a tenner. to pair with a 4gb rx 480 ive got. im still going with an A board as i dont care for overclocking etc anymore, but ive got a brand new 5900x sitting in its box waiting for the purchasing of an a520. also got a zotac mini 1070ti to add and thats going to be my main pc. But back to 1st Gen, they are still very useable even in gaming so long you dont have to high expectations. not to mention how cheap they are now.
First - and even second gen Ryzen didn't really cut it for me. I joined AMD side again with the 3600X in 2019 with a PCIe 4.0 capable X570 motherboard. I upgraded to the 5950X later on and not I'm running my 3600X in a backup system. I built a cheap system for a friend though, getting a cheap Ryzen 5 1600. And yeah: it definitely runs fine.
if you look at utilization during apex the 1700x is barely even being used this thing deserves a 3070 on very high settings and i still think it would only hit 70%
That all sounds well and good on the surface. However, the 14mm architecture of the chip is 7 years old and by today's standards, antiquated. Intel dragged thier feet dumping 14mm and it's how AMD got the edge on them. 12 Gen intel's changed that and now Intel's kick tail again. Building anything with 14mm in 2024 is not a great idea. It's a bit like taking a Model T on the freeway.
How about this combo... An I7-4790k with and RX 6650xt They are actually a decent pairing if you can find a CPU/MOBO/RAM combo on the used market. Time spy score of 8130 and a build cost of just over $400...
Honestly Id say just go for Ryzen 2000. At times on places like eBay, Mercari, and whatever other marketplaces you can find them for similar pricing. Not only that, Ryzen 2000 has one particularly important thing(opinion may vary). Windows 11 compatibility "out of the box" and with how its becoming the end of an era for Windows 10 I think thats important.
I just upgraded my system from a GTX 950 to a RX 6600 on a ryzen 5 1400 system and now the CPU is used way more. I do play some early access and slightly more demanding obscure titles. I get way better framerates and a lot of micro stuttering and glitching. Would it be worth upgrading to a R5 5600. Apparently my motherboard supports it if I update the bios.
@ToastyBros I have an old OptiPlex 5040 as a case, and i5-6500 4 Thread and Core Processer and 16GB of ram, and the stock cooler that it came with the i5, an DELL 0T7D40-A01 motherboard, and a 180W power supply. I have $150 US Dollars to spend. What do I upgrade or what should I do in the future?
In no scernario will you typically get a fps boost with nvidia relfex on+boost. You'll not generally get a fps boost with on or boost. In Apex in current times I would turn nvidia reflex off or possibly on, but definitely not on+boost.
When will you do a budget build with a Dell Precission 3640 with the 1290P cpu/apu. They can come with 1000watt psu, but any standard PSU will work as long as it has a 8 pin and 24 pin mobo plugs, plus GPU cables plugs.

I kept my R5 1600AF with a b450 Tomahawk 16GB ram with a rx 580 (2304sp) it will be good for what my nieces need to do. school work light gaming youtube music
Still using Ryzen 5 1600(14nm)/ GTX 1060 6GB combo. Runs stuff fairly well. Nothing fancy. Would love to upgrade to 5600X / RX 6700 XT but $$ is tight so gonna have to wait for at least another year.
i wasnt sure how good my set up was but yeahim rocking a ryzen 1700 8core and a AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT by msi with 32GB od DDR4 and its still performing great but has its issues here and there now haha
Does the 1600AF count as first gen Ryzen? I have one in my Media PC and it still holds up for gaming paired with a RX580 8GB 2048SP. When it comes to the sponsor I confess I far prefer typing on a membrane keyboard. I've used mechanical keyboards with all different switch types and they simply don't feel right to me.
i am watchinng this on my backup rig which is running a 1700 that i bought since launch.... in an itx build on a b450 msi board (the best itx board for b450 in terms of vrm but i would rather have the asus one which i broke early last year... so i got this one 2nd hand) with a second hand 6700xt with 64GB of ram since ddr4 has dropped price significantly in the 2nd half of last year....
Watching on a ryzen 5 1600 with gtx 1660 and 16 gbs of ram. Been thinking about dropping in a 5700x3d instead of the 5800x3d but not sure what would make a good gpu upgrade on a budget.
no need for x3d unless you use a high end gpu like a 4080 - 4090 (or 7900XT+) the regular R7 5700X is 165$ in amazon, and regular Zen 3 chips are still extremely good
Came out 7 years ago. my god how time flies. i still remember when Ryzen CPUs came out, I fell it had been like 3-4 years only.
back then that was the best money spent, and after 7 years you can still play and kick ass all game, again, great money spend back then.
With AMD the only thing I regret is NOT spending money in a certain place, their stock when I told myself I wanted to back in 2015 😂

my R5 1600 and Rx570 4gig are giving me super fine performance in modern games till now
Probably the 4gb of VRAM.

i have ryzen 3 2200g with vega 8 till now
its has great value for money
Dual Ryzen 1700x owner here. Runs great on Linux.
Since switched to 5700x which is faster but now looking to sell this chips which served me well.
🤗 I'm still using an AMD FX 8120 processer,So i would say this build is better then mine.

Hi guys I recently upgraded my system from a ryzen 5 2600 to a ryzen 7 2700x with the wraith cooler and what a great gaming system
I was running a 2600 w/RX590 and my son a 2400G w/4GB RX480 for years until a few months ago and gave him the 2600 and upgraded mine to a 5600 and bought us both RX 6650XTs. Then 2 weeks ago I decided to go all out on his with a Montech king 95 pro in white Ryzen 7600 on an Aorus Elite AX Ice MB and Asrock phantom gaming RX 7900XT.
I think you guys are on to something of what could be a interesting series, hear me , I recently built a ryzen 5 2600 with 16g 3200 mhz ram paird with and don't laugh a gtx 760 , I found drivers from nvida for it, ran heavens benchmark score was 1675 with max fps 144 with a low of 29 for a average 66.5 fps 1080p high quality settings and the gpu temp maxed out at 78c... it played smite diablo 3 and pub g no problem!!! Them old systems will shock some!! Any ways live the ch and the vids gg
Recently snagged an ax370 board with an 1800x in it and 16gb vengeance kit for $70. The online seller thought something was wrong with the board because it kept shutting off, but I noticed in the pics he had a wraith stealth on it lol. He was trying to cool an 1800x with a stealth - hilarious! I put the only spare cooler I had with a retention bracket on. It was an old stock cooler for a phenom II. It works great lol. Highest temp is 73C, but man the 1800x is so damn slow! It is pitiful. Seriously, a 4th gen i7 can kick its ass (not at multicore but in fps terms).
Got a ryzen 5 1600x for 25$ about 6 months ago, paired it with a gtx 1070 and I couldn't be happier. Sure the cpu is a bottleneck for the gpu in some scenarios, but thats why i bought a b450 motherboard - the upgrade path. When i was building this pc i was on a tight budget, but if i ever want to upgrade, i can buy a r5 3600 or 3600x , a r5 5600 or 5600x , and recently ive been looking into the new r7 5700x , if i would ever want to future proof myself.
I just made a ryzen 5 1600x and gtx 1660 super pc it’s a way better upgrade since I had a gt 1030 and a i5 4590.
Legit thought the thumbnail was to an LTT video.
Love it!
Just bought one a few days ago for 25 bucks after I wrecked my i5-4690k. I am pretty hyped how it will perform at 1080 since I already got +50 fps in ER and BG3 with settinge on high/ultra with the i5 + 1666s.
I have a similar PC with a 1660 super and Ryzen 3 3100 (similar to 1600 AF/2600) and got to say for these older GPUs like GTX 10 series and even 20 these CPUs are still plenty
An i3-12100F outperforms the 1700x in both single and multi-threaded applications. You can get one new for $98 and the platforms only a couple of years old.
the benefit of ryzen is you can start with this cpu and upgrade to 5th gen ryzen with nothing more than a bios flash at the most, they’re even still releasing cpus for AM4
3rd gen 3700x here which you can get under £100 here in the UK. Paired with my 5700xt for £160 and 3600mhz 32gb ram for £35.
You guys are the best been watching you for a lot of years now and I have learned a lot from you guys I even learned how to build pcs and code thanks to u guys now I’m in IT and for those who don’t know what IT is it’s basically information technology like programming and pc software building pcs and laptops gpu and cpu stuff I’m successful In it thanks to these guys the toasty bros❤ love the content man
I have my 1700x as a backup or second pc. I somehow bricked my x570 steel ledged installing a cooler so back to this one. B550M Bazooka, 1700x with single fan liquid cooler(runs at 32c most of the time), Giel 3600 ram, Crucial P3 Plus 1TB, Rx7600 and Seagate psu. Other than some instability with the XMP settings it runs very smooth in games I play. I looked up if this was still a good setup and this video popped up.
Thanks!
Skipped them as I was too lazy to move from my LGA1151 platform. Went for a 2600 later on, upgraded to 3600 and now I have a 5800X.
I still have a Phenom 955BE in my storage PC. It can still run games you wouldn't think it could. I played Anthem on that CPU when it first came out. it was rough though lol
No special command needed to unlock fps to 300 in Apex just choose adaptive in the video settings at V-sync
I have a friend who was running a ryzen 7 1700 non x and a 1080ti since the 1080ti launch days. He recently did a bios update and has a 3700x now. Still games great at 1080p but is starting to show its age with higher resolutions and settings. The 3700x could probably rock out with a 3080 nicely. Hes stretched that PC about as far as it can go. One more GPU upgrade and it will be in its final state like my old FX 8370 GTX 980TI system I rode until the wheels fell off. Its still in use to this day as my main HTPC. Dont ewaste your old PC's. Turn em into something new like a NAS or a HTPC
I’m still running a Ryzen 7 1700! I had a 1060 3gb in it when I built it in 2017. Then my buddy sold me his Vega 64 a few years ago when you couldn’t find a GPU.
The same friend recently gifted me his “old” 3900X with a B550 mother board , with 128gb of ram… yes you read that right. I just play at 1080p so I’m thinking of getting 6700xt/6750xt to use with it, once I get the money saved up. … thoughts on that GPU/CPU combo?
I’ll use the 1700 as the kid gaming computer.
I'm using the same MB with a Ryzen 5 1600 and a GTX 1060 6GB and it plays World of Tanks at 1440p ultra graphics at 90 FPS.
I popped in a RTX 2060 6GB and got 125 FPS which for me was overkill.
The computer is not overclocked as to run a cool and reliable.
so I have 2 gaming PC's I built ,my main pc is a 5800x with a 6700xt and 32 gb ram ,my project one I built ended up being a 1700x and a rx 580 with 32 gb ram also and to be honest I can play all my games on both just fine I mostly play destiny 2 and jedi survivor now days ,so I can say the 1700x is still a viable budget cpu in 2024
Its weird this first gen Ryzen video came out today. Yesterday I was walking past my bulk trash drop off at my apartments and saw a gaming pc laying there with no side pannel. Not really knowing what it was, I grabbed it. Didnt boot at first. One windows reinstall later I found out it was a Ryzen 3 1200 with a gtx 1060 3gb with 16 gb of ddr 4. Not an amazing PC but for free its totally worth. Also had 5 rgb fans lol. Its crazy what people just throw away.
only 1st gen ryzen i ever had was a 1200, i was more in to intel back then, so only older amd cpus i experimented with. i am however currently running a 1600 on a a320m board with 16gb ram stuck at 2400 which is my test bench system and with the oldish graphics cards im testing and the games im testing them with seem to be doing well processor wise. i do have a ryzen 3100 that replaced a 4500, but thats a budget non gaming system im selling. the only other ryzen i used desktop wise was the 3600 in a b450m board and that was a great chip. had it paired with a 1060 6gb at the time. i got the 1600 as it was cheap and im now considering upgrading the 3100 system with either a 1700 as it uses an a320m board also or a 2600 as the price difference for me(UK) is under a tenner. to pair with a 4gb rx 480 ive got. im still going with an A board as i dont care for overclocking etc anymore, but ive got a brand new 5900x sitting in its box waiting for the purchasing of an a520. also got a zotac mini 1070ti to add and thats going to be my main pc. But back to 1st Gen, they are still very useable even in gaming so long you dont have to high expectations. not to mention how cheap they are now.
2700x with a 5700xt for my first build finished last month working great
First - and even second gen Ryzen didn't really cut it for me. I joined AMD side again with the 3600X in 2019 with a PCIe 4.0 capable X570 motherboard. I upgraded to the 5950X later on and not I'm running my 3600X in a backup system.
I built a cheap system for a friend though, getting a cheap Ryzen 5 1600. And yeah: it definitely runs fine.
if you look at utilization during apex the 1700x is barely even being used this thing deserves a 3070 on very high settings and i still think it would only hit 70%
That all sounds well and good on the surface. However, the 14mm architecture of the chip is 7 years old and by today's standards, antiquated. Intel dragged thier feet dumping 14mm and it's how AMD got the edge on them. 12 Gen intel's changed that and now Intel's kick tail again. Building anything with 14mm in 2024 is not a great idea. It's a bit like taking a Model T on the freeway.
Only thing I recommend is overclocking the 1700x for more performance and lower voltage
I still use mine nearly daily. It's still a great CPU.
How about this combo...
An I7-4790k with and RX 6650xt
They are actually a decent pairing if you can find a CPU/MOBO/RAM combo on the used market.
Time spy score of 8130 and a build cost of just over $400...
Honestly Id say just go for Ryzen 2000. At times on places like eBay, Mercari, and whatever other marketplaces you can find them for similar pricing. Not only that, Ryzen 2000 has one particularly important thing(opinion may vary). Windows 11 compatibility "out of the box" and with how its becoming the end of an era for Windows 10 I think thats important.
Rocking the Ryzen 5 1500X from 2017.
I have that cpu in my system that i bought at a yard sale in 2023. This system they made in this video is kinda similar to mine
You guys should do builds with like a Ryzen 5800 or 5900 price to performance. So right now the Ryzen 9 5950 is only $399
I just upgraded my system from a GTX 950 to a RX 6600 on a ryzen 5 1400 system and now the CPU is used way more. I do play some early access and slightly more demanding obscure titles. I get way better framerates and a lot of micro stuttering and glitching. Would it be worth upgrading to a R5 5600. Apparently my motherboard supports it if I update the bios.
Still have my 1600 AF not technically first gen but still awesome!
@ToastyBros I have an old OptiPlex 5040 as a case, and i5-6500 4 Thread and Core Processer and 16GB of ram, and the stock cooler that it came with the i5, an DELL 0T7D40-A01 motherboard, and a 180W power supply. I have $150 US Dollars to spend. What do I upgrade or what should I do in the future?
A gpu ig
It's really impressive what this older hardware can do. AM4 as a platform might be 'dead', but it seems like it can still deliver performance in 2024!
it may not be that dead yet, rumored to be a new cpu and apu coming by years end.
I have a 1700x overclocked to 4.0, runs almost every game, maxes out my 6650XT without a problem, can't run warzone though :(
Ryzen 1700-1700x is like 200-300 Swedish krona in Sweden(used).
Thats like 17 USD.
That 1700x still going strong ain't it. Im impressed.
In no scernario will you typically get a fps boost with nvidia relfex on+boost. You'll not generally get a fps boost with on or boost. In Apex in current times I would turn nvidia reflex off or possibly on, but definitely not on+boost.
Yup thats what i have as retro build with a asus rtx 4060 8gb vram 16gb ram 650w psu but a old 500gb boot/storage hdd lol
The 7 1700x is on a b350 mb gen 3 spec though
When will you do a budget build with a Dell Precission 3640 with the 1290P cpu/apu. They can come with 1000watt psu, but any standard PSU will work as long as it has a 8 pin and 24 pin mobo plugs, plus GPU cables plugs.
I've been usinga ryzen 7 3700x since march of 2020 and it's great.
Love you guys content so much 🔥❤️ and I'm first 😌😁

I kept my R5 1600AF with a b450 Tomahawk 16GB ram with a rx 580 (2304sp) it will be good for what my nieces need to do. school work light gaming youtube music
You guys should try more games and not caping fps so we could see the max performance, anyways good video keep going❤
My two systems have a Ryzen 5 1600 with a gtx1070 and a Ryzen 5 2600 with a 1060
My sons are using a Rzyen 5 1600 AE and a GTX 1050 TI 4gb for their Minecraft gameplay. Does pretty good on 1080p but struggles a bit on 4k.
Still using Ryzen 5 1600(14nm)/ GTX 1060 6GB combo. Runs stuff fairly well. Nothing fancy. Would love to upgrade to 5600X / RX 6700 XT but $$ is tight so gonna have to wait for at least another year.
im rocking the 1700x with the rx7600 gpu, i will be upgrading my cpu soon
Absolutely still worthwhile especially if you have an FX
i wasnt sure how good my set up was but yeahim rocking a ryzen 1700 8core and a AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT by msi with 32GB od DDR4 and its still performing great but has its issues here and there now haha
nice video ive been a sub for a while i love the content
Which is better, the 1700X or the i7 8700k?
Does the 1600AF count as first gen Ryzen? I have one in my Media PC and it still holds up for gaming paired with a RX580 8GB 2048SP.
When it comes to the sponsor I confess I far prefer typing on a membrane keyboard. I've used mechanical keyboards with all different switch types and they simply don't feel right to me.
1600af is 12nm Zen+, its 2nd gen under the hood
I run a r7 2700x and a 2070 and it does pretty well and yes im just now watching this video 7 months later
I'm buying that exact motherboard for my pc build.
got a 16000 af and have iy running a 6700 xt @ 4K. not any problems with the cpu ever.
Just built a Ryzen 1700 X and GTX 1660 Super build for just $300
You were heavily CPU bound in Fortnite, and a little in apex. It was a good experience no doubt but seeing 40% util on a 1660 Super is not cute lol
Im on 5 2600 but planning to upgrade now maybe 5 5700
what's so bad about membrane?
my IBM model M is Membrane, i never had an issue with it
1st gen ryzen vs ryzen 5500 video idea
I just built a new PC and I used the same antec case. I literally just loaded up RUclips on my phone and I see my PC case on a thumbnail
i am watchinng this on my backup rig which is running a 1700 that i bought since launch.... in an itx build on a b450 msi board (the best itx board for b450 in terms of vrm but i would rather have the asus one which i broke early last year... so i got this one 2nd hand) with a second hand 6700xt with 64GB of ram since ddr4 has dropped price significantly in the 2nd half of last year....
i only clicked this video because of the irony of it...
you should do this again but with 2nd gen ryzen 7
hi what lofi song was playin when u were testing fortnite tq :)
Use DX12 for Fortnite with high core count CPUs and performance mode for like old 4-core i5's.
Quick question guys, will a 10A 250v plug be OK for an 850w psu???? Ide really appreciate any advice. Thanks.
does Ryzen 1700 support Win 11? Google says it doesnt ...
Watching on a ryzen 5 1600 with gtx 1660 and 16 gbs of ram. Been thinking about dropping in a 5700x3d instead of the 5800x3d but not sure what would make a good gpu upgrade on a budget.
no need for x3d unless you use a high end gpu like a 4080 - 4090 (or 7900XT+)
the regular R7 5700X is 165$ in amazon, and regular Zen 3 chips are still extremely good
I actually did go with the 5700xand a 3070 that I picked up used.
@@300maze
Please show us more benchmarks
Got that same case and its a good case
what intel Gen is similar to ryzen 1000series IPC ??
My wife is useing my hand me down 2700x its paired with a 1080 ti great pc think im going to upgrade her to a 3060 ti soon tho
my dad didnt let me choose my laptop and my dad bought the ideapd slim 3i im 11 and do you have any give aways
It just matters what you need the computer for.
