I have been mainlining information about processors for the past two weeks. Getting ready to build my first computer in almost 10 years.

Initially I was going to do a cheap Ryzen 5 5600 build in a mini ATX enclosure, but then the i5 13600 came out and I was going to purchase a full size B660 board and an enormous tower, after this price drop I think I am committing to an AM5 build on an mini itx case. The motherboards are similarly priced and I don't want to build on an almost dead platform like lga1700.

Additionally, the whole heat complaints about the 7xxx chips are absurd as you can undervolt and they run at extremely low temps with no performance loss. This takes no effort and involves changing a single BIOS setting.

Basically this and the i5 13600 are similar in performance (Ryzen tends to be better with games, i5 tends to be better with rendering and compression) with the i5 needing about 40% more power. This rises to something like 65% more when comparing to an undervolted Ryzen.

In reality, nobody will ever notice a difference unless you're doing a ton of renders or video conversions, and even then the difference is not extreme.

Pick your poison and best of luck.

I did the same and got the same answer.
I also looked at my receipt and the MB and Ram show price match under it but the CPU does not. I'm assuming some workers may do it in error but they are probably not supposed to.

I would say MC price match is definitely YMMV. Because technically you are getting a combo deal with MC. What they should probably do is see total cost of CPU + memory at Amazon and validate the price that way.

Worth a shot to see if they will do it.

Please explain how you did it. Did you call and ask for a price match after you had reserved it. It's out of stock at my MC, but it has been in and out for the last several days. I wonder whether I should call to see if it's available and if so ask for a price match. TIA!

Went in person and showed them the Newegg ad. He called the manager to confirm and they price matches it. Pretty easy process

Love these Microcenter deals, but the sales tax in my area tacks on a massive 9.5% extra. Kind of makes these deals a bit less slick, but are still quite good.

13th Gen all the way this year. Better performance and backwards compatible with last gen mobos and ddr4/5 ram…
Intel is a dead end platform and higher power draw.

I'm building AMD and will upgrade the cpu again for "free" in a few years.

Agreed. 13600k is faster and cheaper than the 7700x, and since 13th gen can use existing discounted B660 and Z690 boards, as well as DDR4 (or DDR5) the total build cost is even cheaper than AM5/Zen 4. If you still want to go with DDR5, Intel has far better RAM speed support, easily doing 7200+ while Zen 4 is stuck at 6000-6200.

Intel has better performance and pricing this generation.

I'm glad to hear it was a manager's decision, not an associate's error in judgement. Do you mind sharing where your MC is? I think the chance for a price match is better at your location. Congrats on a good deal!

I have the micro center deal on reserve and I'm going to pick it up tomorrow. I'm going to try and see if I can price match it.

Microcenter price matched this and let me use the $25 off for new customers promotion. They also honored the deal for free ram and $50 off on a motherboard.

Newegg has the same price with an additional $10 off promo code
I'd pay $10 more to buy from Amazon way better return policy and customer service. No history of selling open box items as new like they have at Newegg as well.

The Mobo deal has been lowered to $20 savings instead of $50, probably to offset this discount specifically
