It's a good chip if you don't overclock and want to game at 4K but still not as good as the cheaper 7700K or even cheaper i5 7600K.

If you overclock and play at 1080p on my own benches it's about 2.5% faster than an FX6300 and 12.5% slower than an i5 4670K.

Take what you will from that but I cashed out and sent my 1700X back where it came from while I could still get my money back.

Check the HWbot benchmarks, the top overclockers have all but given up using Ryzen already and it isn't troubling the charts anywhere unless used with liquid nitrogen.
