Notes
The Ryzen 7 1700X features 8 cores and 16 threads as first-generation Zen's high-end offering, boosting up to 3.8 GHz. This CPU helped establish AMD's competitive return to desktop computing, offering excellent multi-threaded value. While first-gen Zen has lower IPC than modern architectures, it brought affordable 8-core computing to mainstream users. Despite its age, it remains viable for budget productivity tasks requiring multiple cores. The AM4 platform maturity provides excellent motherboard compatibility at very affordable pricing for entry-level multi-core workstations.
