Now that 7.4.1708 is on a bunch of mirrors and populating the
mirrorlist, I would try this with all your normal repos on (as root):

yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum/

yum upgrade

yum group install "Gnome Desktop"

(assuming you are running the gnome desktop .. if you are running some
other desktop .. use that name instead of "Gnome Desktop" from the
command "yum group list")
