The 4790k is a beast, but I love my 1700, the system just never slows down.

yeah, those have the same performance for gaming and same price. I guess that amd is catching up :P

Although that 1700 is better for a workstation

Ryzen is great, but it will be much better when they roll out the second generation Zen2 cores, late 2018.

Maybe then it will be a true match for Intel in the gaming scene.

For pretty much everything else Ryzen is beating Intel's chips price to performance (single threaded tasks, and memory latency sensitive things excluded).
