(This is back to historical norms... Tray CPU and good motherboard for the MSRP of the retail CPU.)
With that all said, I am still shocked that Micro Center is still alive. The one near me is still going, but I have not walked into that store in years. I do hope they survive because they do have a few unique items. I am still waiting for my local one to get a Raspberry PI allocations, so that I can finally revisit the store ....The last time I was at Microcenter, I was purchasing DOOM 3 for the PC the day it came out....
The i5-12400 that was $159.99 at Microcenter a few weeks ago is now $179.99.
I'll tip into the AMD camp if AMD keeps cutting prices while Intel increases theirs.
Why the downvotes. Man speaks true. Wait n save.

Amen. High interest means high mortgages...do it too fast and you force recession. Prices gonna fall. Hold steady gents ands get these at firesale as revenge for the covid/crypto insanity.
I'm willing to wait for RYZEN 7000 Series and AM5 chipsets for futureproofing so just bought a RX 6650XT on sale to upgrade from an old workhorse GTX 1050 to address my upgrade itch for the time being.
