Questions about AMD Ryzen 7 1800x

There are already some fans, because many of the old ones are still compactable (or Artic Freezer 13) there are even more that are compactable but I can't think of any names right now.

Most AM4 boards with X370 chipsets (Enthusiast) support a maximum of 2-3 m.2 hard disks. As a rule, one Gen3 and one Gen 2. At the same time, however, certain PCI-E slots are switched off. With the ASRock Fatal1ty X370 it looks like this: 2 x PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots (PCIE2: x16 mode; PCIE3: x8 mode)*. * Supports NVMe SSD as boot disks 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot (PCIE5 @ x4 mode) * If PCIE5 slot is occupied, M2_2 will be disabled 2 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 slots 1 x Vertical M.2 Socket (Key E) with the bundled WiFi-802.11ac module (on the rear I/O) Storage 8 x SATA3 6.0Gb/s Connectors, support RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1 and RAID 10), NCQ, AHCI and Hot Plug 2 x SATA3 6.0Gb/s Connectors by ASMedia ASM1061, support NCQ, AHCI and Hot Plug 1 x Ultra M.2 Socket (M2_1), supports type 2242/2260/2280 M.2 SATA3 6.0Gb/s module and M.2 PCI Express module up to Gen3 x4 (32Gb/s)* 1 x M.2 Socket (M2_2), supports type 2230/2242/2260/2280 M.2 PCI Express module up to Gen2 x4 (20Gb/s)* * If M2_2 is occupied, PCIE5 slot will be disabled * Supports NVMe SSD as boot disks * Supports ASRock U.2 Kit I don't think there will be big differences between the manufacturers, as this is predefined by AMD (through the CPU) and the motherboard manufacturers cannot do anything in this area. In other words. I would have tended to say 1080 + 2 M.2 SSDs is fine. If the third is a must, you should clarify this in more detail and check the motherboards specifically to see if your configuration is explicitly supported. Alternatively, a larger M.2 SSD and SATA-III SSDs in a RAID (if that is at all necessary)?

Unfortunately no, your linked system currently has an Intel processor with socket LGA 1151 installed. Unless you can / want to replace the mainboard, you are therefore limited to Intel processors for LGA 1151. AMD Ryzen 7 uses the AM4 socket.

No... The HP-OMEN 880-001nx is an Intel system. It only fits 7th generation Intel CPUs for the LGA 1151 socket.

Thanks for the info!

A mistake, I'm sure. It can't be intentional.

Level1techs have a few videos and articles on this. As I understand it, you need an X370 chipset to be able to split the two GPU PCIe slots to 8x/8x, B350 does not support this. Also, in older BIOS versions before 1.0.0.6 AGESA microcode the two GPU slots were in group 2, since this version fixed. For better info Google Level1Tech and IOMMU, you should be able to find everything you need to know.

Nobody knows yet, AMD still says early August. And since Digitec also had Ryzen officially available for pre-order through AMD, I'm guessing this will come sometime after the official confirmation.

So for a 1800x people usually take a x370 mainboard, I would look at what features you want to have and then choose according to price/appearance from it if you have chosen a mainboard.If you have chosen a mainboard then look for the compatibility list and depending on the ram you want you can choose one with this speed (on the list) if you tell me your desired mainboard I can do it for you.

What kind of mainboard do you use (or which one do you want to buy)? What applications do you use? Do you need 8GB, 16GB, 32GB etc? Do you overclock? And no, price does matter. After all, you are asking for performance. Then you have demands, don't you? Name a limit. Otherwise, just buy "standard" RAM, such as the following product: HyperX Fury (2x, 8GB, DDR4-2400, DIMM 288)

It is sold in the tray variant. The packaging looks identical.

Let someone build it for you. the benefits are enormous, and the pc will last you way much longer when you have a self built pc. Medion and all other manufacturers use low end piece of crap motherboards, PSU's and cables, as no one cares about them.

It depends on what you do with the computer. If it's just for gaming, it makes a minimal difference, but doesn't really justify an upgrade. It really makes sense if you are doing work that benefits from the 8 cores. E.g. content creator, video/photo editing, workstation load, etc. This is where upgrading is most beneficial. In summary, for gamers, the update from a Skylake is not worth it.

As far as I could tell from press reports, all Ryzen CPUs that have an X at the end do not have a cooler. But it could also be a Wraith Max cooler. I'm not 100% sure anymore. But since this processor is for overclocking anyway, I would recommend an AiO WACC anyway.
