Thought this might interest some people working on a budget build since you still don't see many decent motherboards at this price point. Nice amount of storage slots at this price.

They also sometimes do deals through amazon, but not as good.
X3d is the future and and not including it on all their processors is a marketing mishap taking them in the same greedy direction. AMD should be putting the pressure on TSMC not subject to them controlling our technological destinies in the US of A.

Btw, specifically for gaming, the jump from the 11400f to the 12400f is less than what people seem to be claiming: https://www.techpowerup
The 12400f shows a 12% gain in gaming at 1080p. Part of the gains are also due to the use of DDR4-3600 vs DDR5-6000 for the 12400f. DDR5-6000 would not go into a budget build.
Someone considering the Z590 motherboard is very likely looking for a starting point for a budget build. Given how much half-decent ATX motherboards for AM4/AM5 and LGA 1700 are still going for, an $80 Z590 like this paired with a cheap i5 10400f/11400f or similar could be a solid upgrade option for a budget builder.
Fwiw, I went the Z590 + 11400f path a year ago due to a fire sale that made it a no brainer. Paired with an RX 6600 XT at 1080p ultrawide on modern games, my CPU is around 25-35% while the GPU is maxed out.
In the end, I'd go with whatever has the best price-to-performance for your use case. Outside of modern games, I didn't anticipate many CPU heavy workloads so a cheap 11400f was fine for me. These guys benchmarked just about every modern CPU so it's worth a look if you haven't seen it yet. Here's the gaming summary at 1080p: https://www.techpowerup
Note that newer CPUs are also helped by DDR5 during the benchmarks so your gains would be more modest if you pair 12th gen with budget DDR4 etc
