My experience:
Ryzen 7 1700
Gigabyte AB350 Gaming Motherboard
NVIDIA gtx1070
Kubuntu 17.04 installer on USB stick.

Same install problems as others with IRQ mess.

Solved as buzuk56 and Nextized described, however the proprietary NVIDIA drivers do not work with 4.11 kernel, so used the 4.10.3 version. I installed both kernels, but had to modify Grub config and run update-grub. I added a 2 second Grub startup delay so you can get into Grub easily to mess with boot options.

I set 4.10.3 as default kernel, and have acpi=on

On install of Nvidia drivers, Linux will crash after install (can't shutdown, lots of application crashes). Forced reboot and it's OK.

System seems to work now, Nvidia drivers are working (GLXgears works), all cores are showing in system monitor. Screen locking/unlocking works, and system can restart itself with no problems.

Thank you for all your efforts on this, I've been a Linux user since 486's were a thing and I'm constantly amazed at how things have changed.
