With the second-gen AMD Ryzen processors rolling out, we could expect to see some price cuts in order to move old inventory. This is one hell of a deal of the day! The 1700X (we reviewed it here) is now for sale at Amazon for $185 after $30 MIR. That is only $23 a core, or $11.50 a thread. No matter how you slice it, that is the beginning of a great budget build for just about anyone! Most of these 1700X CPUs we used where able to be overclocked to 4GHz and will make for a hell of a base gaming rig that you can also stream from as well. Check out our Definitive AMD Ryzen 7 Real-World Gaming Guide for how these will support your gaming experience. Thanks @cageymaru.
