I was SO close to pulling the trigger when I noticed Best Buys return policy is only 15 days. No way I'll have the rest of my build together that quick. It would be my luck to get a bad cpu even if it's the most uncommon thing ever.
This looks like a pretty good deal. I wish Amazon would match, just for the security of returns. I am like the person above, want to collect components but may not build for a few weeks.

There is warranty from Intel! Short of putting it in a rock tumbler for weeks it will most likely be fine.
If I didn't just get my i7-13700K for the same sale price as their i7-13700KF I would be so pissed. These are great prices, and no one considering a build in the next 4 months should skip this!

I dunno about streaming but you can have the integrated gpu handle real time decoding (watching movies) or transcoding (streaming via plex) and have almost zero impact on the game you are playing on your other monitor on your dgpu. Even for stupid easy stuff like Netflix or hulu I would see 1 percentile frame rate drops on the game or skipping on the video that annoyed the shit out of me since I paid way too much for my 3080ti. Random spikes of slowness when any AAA title Is working it really hard and I'm trying to watch 4k video at the same time. Forcing the video to use the igpu... none of that nonsense. So it does have it's purpose for some folks even when you have a dgpu

Usage for diagnosing is another benefit of integrated graphics. If your computer is having a problem and you don't have a second GPU, the integrated graphics can be invaluable. That might make it worth it for some.
