mhm...under idle and normal use like browsing the net or so probably not more then your normal gaming console would draw while being used. under gaming use....more but its also not something that would drive costs through the roof unless you would have it running 24/7 at full load. in that case the PSU is a good indication of what is even possible. but yeah my PSU is nowhere near its limit with the parts inside.
pretty awesome so far. I'm coming from an i5 6600k. while Gaming peformance in what I play and the resolution I play in are fairly similar the huge difference it makes has been in multitasking. I usually have a lot of other things going on on the side (youtube or twitch, webbrowser, chatprograms, sometimes music and other things) so the i5 sometimes really struggled with that to the point of it effecting gaming peformance while I have none of that happen with Ryzen.
cause intel is stagnating progress with their business model. the last few generations have only been minor iterations of the same ground architecture and revisions of what little progress has been mate. Intel also keeps insisting 4 cores are "enough" even through consoles are already more relying on multithreading and its only gonna go more towards multithreading in the future.
in order for progress to be made there needs to be competition. so I gladly support said competition, otherwise its gonna be bad for all consumers. I am aware of AMD's shortcomings and flaws, so I'm not a blind fanboy.

oh no I wasn't. but I'm aware some intel fanboy might stumble in here and accuses me of it so I rather put it out there right away. and I would highly recommend it. specially if you plan to invest a bit more and keep the same CPU for a few years (or only want to update the CPU after a few years since AMD has promised they will keep the AM4 platform for the future iterations and revisions of Ryzen as well)
