Worth the upgrade from i7-12700?
If you do multi-tasking then yes, otherwise for normal use and gaming, it is minimal.

Personally, I've never felt compelled to upgrade on the same mobo when using Intel. YMMV depending on your use cases. You may need a better cooler to pair with the 12900k as well so that'd make me lean towards waiting for a new platform entirely.

Maybe the 13900k on sale?

Honestly I have a 9700k and a 3080 and don't see a good reason to upgrade the CPU yet at all. I guess this is decent for people starting from scratch. Good luck

Not at all worth it. If you're looking to upgrade from that chip, look to Raptor Lake. Your motherboard likely already supports one with a BIOS update.

Same here that's why I got bestbuy to price match microcenter for my 13700k which came out cheaper than this deal, plus it's a better faster processor. All I had to do was pick it up from my local BB instead of driving hours up north
