2016 or later. Not sure what you mean by type? Need for office work at home using Excel, Word, Powerpoint, Access.

Thanks!

Given the sheer volume of threads complaining about this specific issue with the x570 mobo and 3700x not recognizing ram, it was the CPU in my case. Just got back with a new 7 5700x and everything posts and boots fine out of the box. Activated xmp profile still ran perfect. Activated lazy...

Trust me I've tried every combo. And you can it will tell you it's not optimal. I'd preface this is not my first build.

I was really hoping someone could confirm my troubleshooting ... issue is the Ryzen 7 3700X CPU that I have. Problem: Upgrading my build to MSI X570S Edge Wifi + Ryzen 7 3700x + Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3600 2x16GB. Boot gets stuck at DRAM led and doesn't post. If I remove 1 stick, it...

I use Premiere Pro and After Effects with CUDA enabled (running GTX 1070) and so far 1080P video editing with my Ryzen 5 1500X has been smooth. But now that I am doing more 4K, I can't even properly edit because preview playback stutters too much. A used Ryzen 7 2700X is within my budget and I...

Yup will do thanks again everyone.

Cool thanks guys. Yea I'm not maxing out CPU usage consistently. I'll top it out for sure now and then for example when doing a particularly complex image trace from raster to vector path in Illustrator. Sometimes it just hangs totally. It's those instances I'd like to address. But for the...

Right, I guess I'm not understanding how going from a Ryzen 5 1500x to a Ryzen 7 2700x is going from gen1 to gen1 according to this but maybe I just misread. Just trying to get a sense if the jump is worth it at current prices for 2700x (Microcenter) given what I use it for that I described above.

Thanks Nobu. Ryzen 7 is still concerned gen 1?

Looking to upgrade my Ryzen 5 1500x OC'ed to 3.8 to the 7 series either the 1700, 1800x, or 2700x. Would I see enough of an improvement for my uses described below just going to 1700 or would I really need to go to 2700x? Or stick with the 1500x? I do a lot of gaming across genres from MMOs...

Yea I'm willing to buy an open box from Micro Center with 30 day return and mfr warranty rather than buy from a guy who I do not know guaranteeing a working card by his words only. Call me crazy, I know. I am lovin the 1070. I got it stable at 2.1 - I really prefer using Heaven as my stress...

Thanks a lot everyone for the great responses. These are really good considerations. I think I may just hold off on third-party sale for now and see if I can luck out at any of the retailers. Reason I was even considering Best Buys super inflated price is just time. I was really hoping to...

Hey guys. I'm desperate to upgrade a recently bought 1050. My 970 died and quite literally the only video card they had at Frys was a 1050. I thought I could tough it out for the time being but this card struggles too much compared to the 970. I play a lot of Ark can barely keep 30fps on...

Thank you for that - this is where I was headed as well. And so far it really is not peaking past 81C.
