ryzen 1800x excels in heavy workload multitasking woks over the 7700k. furthermore, the 1800x is seen to compare against the 6800k. 7700k is the current gaming cpu. but the ashes of singularity patch almost gave a 25% gain. ryzen isnt optimised yet for gaming. give it some time for devs to take full advatage n understand zen architecture.

Lucky_SLS is correct except that the 1800x is a competitor to the 6900k, not the 6800k.
The R7's aren't pure gaming chips - they're prosumer CPUs. AMD highlighted their productivity prowess while hinting acceptable game performance - which is verified by many of the reviewers.
The AOTS patch increased R7 performace by 25% implying that games just aren't optimized for them just yet (and R7s are not working at their full potential at the time in games). Future games will have better support. Ryzen performance will only get better as many softwares and games optimize for it.
Hope this answered your question.

Ryzen absolutely dominates in workstation loads. Video editing, rendering, animating, coding, streaming, transcoding, and much more.
It also games very well when paired with fast RAM, and soon optimizations will come in and it will be a better CPU.
For example. I want to make my own videos and edit them, stream, render basic animations (just for fun), make some artwork like logos, and code. I'd also use it to make stop motion, edit my photos from my camera. It's really useful for this.
And I'd also be gaming. A lot of gaming too. Ryzen 1700x with 3600mhz CL16 RAM is like a 7700k in gaming, so it'll do my job well.
I am expecting it to get even better. But even if it doesn't, a 10 FPS difference won't ever make up for the 40-50% workstation performance increase compared to a 7700k.
