    Nice, the discount is from MRSP from more than a year ago.
    It's $20 discount from current Newegg price. Not bad, but not as drastic)

    Combine this with the mobo from woot for $99 and you've got a good deal

    Depends on the game you're playing. There are games that are CPU bound. Also you are prone to drastic fps drops with older gen CPUs on modern games. Can you run modern games on older hardware? Absolutely, but there are clear advantages to upgrade.

    Not hating on old hardware at all, actually just built a 3770 + 1080 ti for my friends kid so he can play Fortnite and Valorant, he gets about 250 fps on 1080p but I see fps drop to 120s ever so often.

    The Newegg chat rep said I could send it back for a full refund as long as I don't open the box... I'm not sure if I trust that because she originally said it wasn't returnable. I'm not sure if $20 is worth the headache if something goes wrong

    I wish they'd released a I5-12500K. Would've give us all the sandy bridge feels. That 2500K ran for waaaaay longer than it was supposed to. In fact I think it is still quite a capable processor, more than a decade after its release. I remember I was able to OC it to 4.7GHZ.
