That was gen 10 and only available in 1 store for $150, but $210 everywhere else. For $40 more and available at all locations this is a good deal for the lga 1200 swan song i7.

And then the next question is should you return this one and wait for the upcoming 12th gen Alder Lake?

Definitely skip these if you can, there is a reason they are cheap. Alder lake (12th gen) is miles better than these or go AMD.

I would suggest 12600k as for $250 is a much better price/performance.

Any boards less than 225+ worth buying? Checking z690 the price difference in the board increases the overall build cost by quiet a bit.

Rather stick with my $280 5700G. Won't have to dish out another $300 for an 'ok' video card as well.

You are already saving on the CPU so its offsetting the overall cost. Additionally whenever you buy a new Gen you will be paying premium. If you want 12th gen CPU you can always chose to buy a DDR4 board and save money on motherboard and RAM. Again all of these are my opinion, not trying to lead you a certain way. If i was going to stay on an older gen I would rather buy a 10th gen intel or AMD than go with 11th gen intel. Also I cannot make a suggestion on a motherboard not knowing what you would use it for, if you would overclock, etc.
