So happy with my Ryzen 7 1800x. I tried my hand at a 4k video two days ago and wasn't something I even planned on doing, but, it was flawless. Hopefully the rest of the Ryzen series does well too.
As far as gaming was concerned. It performs better than my I7 4790k. Now, I just need to replace my R9 390X with a GTX 1080 Ti.

No, Xsplit. I'm going to get Vegas Pro 14 at some point this week.

Sadly though... My 5 year old 3930K @ 5ghz still outbenches Ryzen 7 1800X... Granted the Ryzen chip uses a fraction of the energy, which is a big plus.
But one of Ryzens Achilles' heel is that they are shit at overclocking, for the lower-end parts that isn't much of an issue... Because the Intel Non-K chips are also shit at overclocking due to being locked, which is where Ryzen becomes a seriously attractive alternative.
I'm super keen to see how the Ryzen APU's turn out, it's a shame that AMD doesn't have a high-end motherboard chipset to really make APU's shine though.
At the moment, if I were to choose, I would chose Intel over AMD for the octo-core chips.
But I would chose AMD for the Quad and Hex core chips, their value can't be beat.
Keen to see how AMD's Zen+ architecture plays out, AMD should make attempts to rectify all the shortcomings of Zen, which is a great thing for us consumers.
It will probably take years for the Hex cores to become mainstream, common-place chips though... I mean. Hell. People are happily running the latest and greatest games on Nahelem still. Haha

I came from a 4790k and wanted an 8 core processor. Ryzen has been great. It's running at 3.9 as I don't really need it to run at 4.0 anyway and allows me to do exactly what I intended. Besides motherboad issues, I've had no problems from the CPU itself.
