The 1600x is the perfect gaming CPU IMO. Highest binning 6c/12t and high base clock.

Depends on how much dissipation you want, vertical or horizontal, max cooler height etc.So the numbers seem to agree. So what cooler do I need to get? I've never bought a 3rd party cooler for a CPU before so I don't know where to start. Newegg doesn't even have a separate listing for AM4 coolers.

Will be joining the club next week, have a Gigabyte AX370-Gaming 5 and a 1700X inbound. Wanted the Taichi but got tired of waiting.
AGESA 1.0.0.6 is currently being tested by motherboard manufacturers per Gigabyte support forums' Matt. He says they will try to make it into the next round of beta BIOSes but no guarantees = improved memory capabilities later this month?
It was pointed out that the Taichi came in stock the day following my purchase, so I bought one and will return the Gigabyte.I have the Gigabyte Gaming K5 and am pretty disappointed in it. Thinking about selling it to a friend and seeing if I could pick up an Asrock instead.

I may go with the low profile unit there. I've always worried those tall coolers would pull themselves away from the mobo at some point and go clunking down the case and take everything with it. I would use a taller cooler if the case was horizontal not vertical.

Cooler Master Hyper T4 goes on sale for $9.99 every other week.
So accroding to Cooler Masters' website here : http://www.coolermaster.com/amd-am4-ryzen-compatability/en/
The T4 is ALREADY AM4 compatible, right? No extra brackets needed?
@IndyColtsFan Do you see an option for vCORE offset?
Ok, I think I finally got my components settled in. How's it look?

I would not use the T4, it'll be clocked wrong and most likely hit your RAM
