Website El Chapuzas Informatico posted a review on the Ryzen 5 1600 processor. The Ryzen 5 1600 is a six-core, twelve-threades processor that has a Turbo clock 400 MHz under Ryzen 5 1600X and would be priced 250 Euro.
The motherboard used does not yet have the new firmware latency optimizations that will be released next week, hence the results would be a little off. The gents at ECI feel that that Ryzen 5 1600 is not as good as Intel in most games, also they mention that most 2400 MHz+ memory kits were incompatible with their motherboard.
They used the following specs:
- MSI X370 XPower Gaming Titanium
- G.Skill TridentZ DDR4 3600 MHz @ 2400 MHz
- MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Gaming Z
- Be Quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 1200W
- SSD Kingston SSDNow KC400 128 GB
- SSD Corsair LX 512 GB
- Windows 10 64 bit
We are posting a review on that motherboard tomorrow and can confirm that MSI still has got a lot of work to do on their memory support. Below the results, courtesy of ElChapuzasInformatico.
