Wow, 12 physical cores. So this is good for both gaming and editing?

Unless your motherboard doesn't support 5XXX series, I see no reason to get this over the 5900X which is the same price right now... This would be a good deal like in 2020.

B550 and a520chipset out of the box. x370, b450, x470 and x570 might require bios update based on when the motherboard was manufactured.

5900x on microcenter can have 369$, not worth save 20$ as 5900x much faster and newer.

Its a bad deal when 12th gen and Zen 3 are on sale now, and much better CPUs. Next gen CPUs also launch in 2 months.

For example a 12700F is $310 and 50% faster in single threaded applications/gaming, and 20% faster in multi-threaded
