Gregory Davis Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Hey yall, Ready to build a new rig based on a Ryzen 1700. Would like to hear how your builds have gone using various AM4 motherboards. I'm shooting for 32GB(2x16) as close to 3200 as I can get and of course want to get the highest OC I can out of the 1700. I've been looking at the +/-$150 x370 boards. Trying to figure out highest overclocker and compatible 32GB(2x16) RAM.....with least amount of RMA's. Main use of build is as render node for vray & corona. If it turns out to be a real screamer, I may use as workstation and turn current workstation into node(5820k)....in that case I'll be using 2 GPU's, a GTX 770 & 1070. Will aslo plan on adding a M.2 drives in the future. Not interested in hear-say...would really love to hear from people with actual experience with their own builds. Trying to get my choices all lined up for black friday sales. Thanks yall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Davis Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Crickets are chirping on this thread.... Anyway...nevermind - after spending too much time trying to figure out what RAM is going to work with which Ryzen motherboard....I heard about Intel's new chip.. My new I7-8700k just arrived friday. I'm waiting until black friday to cyber monday sales to finish ordering the rest of the parts for the build.. Reckon I'll start a new 8700k build thread now... Sorry Ryzen....we were so close....
