Toms Hardware even says Ryzen is now faster than Intels i7-7700K in 1080p!

Also, firmware updates from AMD coming soon:

“We have reduced DRAM latency by approximately 6ns. This can result in higher performance for latency-sensitive applications.
We resolved a condition where an unusual FMA3 code sequence could cause a system hang.
We resolved the “overclock sleep bug” where an incorrect CPU frequency could be reported after resuming from S3 sleep.
AMD Ryzen Master no longer requires the High-Precision Event Timer (HPET).”
... and:
“We intend to issue updates to motherboard partners in May that will enable them, on whatever products they choose, to support speeds higher than the current DDR4-3200 limit without refclk [reference clock] adjustments.”
So things are improving!
