As for performance, Im using 3200 mhz DDR4 and im getting the same cinebench r23 score as a 13600k (what I put in this board) with DDR5 5600 ram.
The website said OOS but I drove there this morning and picked it up 15 mins ago.
So if you want this combo, it is available. Don't trust the "out-of-stock" status on the MC website.
Edit: I was blind. There's actually a whole other section for the Z690. So the total count on the shelf should be about 30+.
A lot of mismanagement really. For example a couple of days ago, one guy found a glitch on the MC website that he was able to add another motherboard for $0.01. This glitch was caught real fast though.

"Brought to our attention by a reader, the Core i7-13700KF was found to be an unbelievable 48% slower than its predecessor on the Z690-Plus WiFi D4. Scoring just cores 32.37 FPS in the 3DMark TimeSpy CPU test, it falls short of the 12700K by a margin of 37%."

I'm using the thermalright PA120, ~$40 on amz. The pa120se also works, a bit cheaper.
