Haha it really is. The ryzen 5600x is faster but its $100 more but not $100 better. Pretty good buy imo.

I bought my 9600k last year from MC for $170. Just picked up the 9700K a couple weeks ago for $200 and recently sold the 9600k for $165 on ebay... Can't be mad at that

Best buy won't price match anything Sunday before Thanksgiving through Monday after Thanksgiving due to Black Friday craziness.

The 9700F is $189, the closest MC to me is 1.5 hours though, dang it.

Is 9700F better than 9700k? Which is the good mobo to get. We got 3600x for $220 and MSI B550 MPG Gaming Edge WiFi AMD AM4 ATX Motherboard for $130. Wondering if we can save some money by going with Intel combo. is it good idea to get open box items from Microcenter? Things like mobo are offered with lot of discount in case they are open box.

Is this better than 3600X. Bought it for $220. It has same $20 discount on mobo combo. Are these intel chips gets more hot and need extra cooling with high power consumption.

The F has no on board graphics which is fine since people running this will be running a video card.

9700F is locked - you want the KF for equivalent performance

it consumes less power due to no iGPU but that's it - not unlocked
