Limited to one per customer. Looks like you have to go to store to pick it up, but solid enough deal.

Aren't the 11-gen CPUs out? Or are those laptop-only? (Intel is so confusing)

Got the same cpu from microcenter (I had the option of getting a 5600x or spending a little bit more to get a 5800x) I opted for the 10850k. losing PCI-E 4.0 sucked but the 10850k is great little cpu for the price. I don't regret going intel one bit.

Intel mobile 11-gen is on 10 nm (Tiger Lake)
Intel desktop 11-gen is the last 14 nm refresh but uses new Tiger Lake layout/ core design (Rocket Lake)

Tiger lake is way faster IPC, runs relatively cool. Rocket lake is limited to 8 cores and runs really hot.

The "real" 11th gen on 10nm is slated for release in October with the Alder Lake series of cpu. Supposedly 20% faster IPC.

You could get a decent deal on a 11600k in-store for 219. So, compare the two sales and I would go with the 11gen if you have the choice.

If you are a gamer and are "wondering how the new 11700K stacks up against the old 10700K, it looks like this. There are a few decent wins for either chip but put them all together and the difference is about 1% in favor of the 11700K." quoted from https://www.techspot.com/review/2...vs-10700k/

Don't know why Intel still selling these old CPUs for so much. Should be $200.
