Until Q2 we will not have the AMD Ryzen 5… and this can be a long wait for users who want to change their PC and do not have as much budget to buy an AMD Ryzen 7 1700 or the top of the range AMD Ryzen 7 1800X. We have seen a very interesting comparison of how a quad core 1800X would perform against the powerful IPC of the i7-7700k.

AMD Ryzen 4 cores vs i7-7700k

The AMD Ryzen Master utility allows us to raise frequencies, adjust the voltage and one of the most interesting options is to disable physical cores, that is, we can use: 8, 6, 4 or 2 cores. This is ideal for reducing consumption and for lovers of overclocking. Since no platform allows it in hot and we had to access it from the BIOS for any change.

To do the tests they have disabled four of the cores (remember that it has 8), they have left 8 MB of L3 cache, they have fixed both processors at 4000 MHz and have mounted the same memory at 2400 MHz. That is, a comparative more than fair and with a lot of head.

As we said during our review of the AMD Ryzen 7 1700, this range of processors is going to give a lot of war in the market. Benchmark tests and synthetic tests are really good for the AMD Ryzen and except for AIDA64 (Memory Test) it beats the i7-7700k by quite a bit.

Regarding games, everything is also very close. Only in the Far Cry Primal game was a significant difference of up to 10% found. We also have the most demanding gaming helmets like Battlefield 1 that achieves a brand new 109 FPS on average against the 119 FPS of the Intel i7-7700k, in GTA V the differences are less at odds with 2 FPS less for the Ryzen , with the Tomb Raider we tend a difference of 3 FPS and with The Division less than 3 FPS . That is, minimal differences being a Full HD resolution.

We recommend reading the best processors on the market.

At first it seems that the AMD Ryzen 5 1500X will be for an approximate price of about $ 200, in Spain about 260 euros. If these tests are contrasted with this new series of processors… And they are also capable of withstanding overclocking and optimizing Microsoft's Windows 10 operating system correctly.

Intel will have a really tough rival and will have no choice but to adjust its prices if or if. What do you think? Do you think that the quad-core 1500X will turn out as good or the most interesting will be the six-core Ryzen 5 1600X ?
