I think Best Buy's offer cheaper than this

Same here. I already got a 5800X, smh.

"100%"? That's just goofy.
The 12700k benchmarks better ACROSS THE BOARD.

Even if we take tomshardware's benchmarks…a "100%" better quote implies this processor is twice as fast. Still goofy.

Nope. Any raptor lake 13600k or better beats it. And they all have vastly superior non-gaming performance too.
BUT I found ~$100-120 3700x's locally online, which should provide ~20% improvement for FREE after I sell my 2700x for ~$100 or so also
20% number taken from here:
Ryzen 7 2700X vs. Ryzen 7 3700X: High Refresh Gaming Comparison
Following up to our recent CPU comparison in competitive titles using low quality settings, we're pitting the Ryzen 7 3700X and 10th-gen Core i5-10600K against the 2700X...
www.techspot.co
we see that the Ryzen 7 3700X was on average 20% faster than the 2700X and 26% faster when comparing average fps. Those are some truly impressive generational performance gains.
The 2700X still enabled highly playable performance with smooth frame rates, so for many gamers that difference won't be realized, particularly given you're almost always GPU limited under realistic conditions, high refresh/competitive gaming being about the only exception.
Usage context: Honestly I play older games now, not AAA FPS demanding titles like Battlefield...
I do use OBS to stream though + have many trading windows open which take up a good amount of processing power,
I play the games @ 1440p - 165hz
Conclusion:
Unsure about the value proposition of doing this as I don't FEEL like my CPU is slow at the moment. It doesn't quite feel 100% fast either but game FPS wise I'm well over 100FPS all the time whenever I play Overwatch or other games. Thoughts? Could be fun to just spend it and feel the difference 🤔

Intel.... and you have cash... then sure get the cream of the crop for $500+ cpu and more for mobo. A lot of people shouldn't be spending cash on that value wise unless you're already topping out at 165hz+ frames on a nice monitor etc
