From the BEA: Gross Domestic Product: Second Quarter 2017 (Second Estimate)

Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 3.0 percent in the second quarter of 2017, according to the "second" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the first quarter, real GDP increased 1.2 percent.

emphasis added

Here is a Comparison of Second and Advance Estimates. PCE growth was revised up from 2.8% to 3.3%. (solid PCE). Residential investment was revised up slightly from -6.8% to -6.5%. This was above the consensus forecast.
