Hi guys, Looking at upgrading my cpu, I narrowed it down to the new Ryzen series but I'm split between the 7 1700x and the 1700. The 1700x comes as a bundle for a good price but I could get a 1700 and get a nicer mobo that matches my setup better for just a little more.

Can the 1700 be easily overclocked to match the performance of the 1700x or the 1800x?

1700 and 1700x are the same when overcloked so save money and get 1700
