13700K is $359 at Microcenter, if one is near you, probably better to get that than a 12900K. Same number of cores but clocked higher and has a better memory controller.
Tdp down is not idle power use but an alternate low power configuration for configurations where the heat dispersal is limited. TDP describes heatsink requirements not power use. All modern CPUs will clock lower during low utilization.
My entire rig with 2 m2's 4 sticks of ram, and a 3060TI guzzles 40 watts when watching youtube...

Looks like a good deal. Amazon has a great return policy anyways.

That 12700k is a deal. Makes a combo with a mb like 400 bucks and you can re use your ddr4. Super low cost upgrade for many
