RYZEN 7 1800X Review - A $500 CPU Worth Buying? | The Tech Chap

I put the new $500 8-Core AMD RYZEN 7 1800X CPU to the test in Cinebench R15, Adobe Premiere Pro and a variety of games to see how it fares versus Intel's i7-6900K & i7-7700k. Big thanks to AMD, MSI, CoolerMaster & Crucial for helping me build this rig.
