gollark: I've been eyeing it as a possible part for a hypothetical new osmarks.tk server, to replace my old (Nehalem or something) HP tower.
gollark: Or a 1700 for the same price, but it would be worse for gaming.
gollark: Also, they just announced that Ryzen 3000 is to be released on July 7th. Not next month. It's, what, 6 weeks?
gollark: The 1700 is only about £130 now.
