AMD R7 1700X @ 4.0 GHz Gaming/Game Dev Rig Build
We have been playing with these AMD parts a lot, and we have had amazing luck in the overclocking department. Our 1800X is not stable at 4.2 and this one is running nicely at 4.0 at only 1.33V. That’s good for all day computing. Also, these CPUs are an unreal value for unreal engine (or unity, cryengine, etc.) development because they are pretty good at gaming and awesome at productivity. At this price, it’s a no-brainer for game development. Here are the specs: Specs and prices: AMD Ryzen R7 1700X: http://amzn.to/2n8KUwj G.Skill Trident DDR4 16GB (upgrade to 32 for game dev): amzn.to/2mRsejP…

Stop The Spin: Ryzen is Awesome | The Crit Show 0013
Many have been negative about the Ryzen launch, focusing merely on gaming performance rather than the beastly price to performance ratio when it comes to productivity. Some of these same people praised Intel’s $1000 X99 parts when they too do not compete well with the far cheaper Kaby Lake parts. The 1800X is not the gaming killer, it’s the X99 killer. Fanboys need to understand that competition is good and spin is bad.

AMD Ryzen 1800X Benchmarks, Review, and Our Opinions | AMD is Back
Ryzen is here and we have been testing the Ryzen 7 1800X. We have done more testing since our video and these review scores reflect the total data. At this point we have a very interesting CPU and a platform that needs to mature. We had random issues with the UEFI, boards loosing power, etc., but we were able to complete our tests. Ryzen is a disruptor. You’re looking at 8 cores and 16 threads starting at $329 (less than the price of the Intel i7 7700k). The Ryzen 7 1700, 1700X, and 1800X are all the same CPU with…

Clearing The Air: Logan’s Final Statement Regarding the Tek Syndicate Drama
Here is my statement on the drama. I should have done this a long time ago, but I did not know all the information that had been given to the audience. It’s saddening that so many things were made public in an attempt to harm me or Tek Syndicate. I would say that whomever released such documents was wishing to cause harm and they are not a friend of the community. I believe most of it to be spin, petty, hearsay, etc. I could have been better at keeping records, managing the books, keeping accounts separate, and communicating. Lessons leaned.…
