Oh man you had my hopes up on that i5. But man the i5 13600k is a beast of a cpu. Sub 200$ for that would be great. Maybe by end of year MC would get a deal on it. And the 12600k would be 130$

What's the deal with the i7-12700 (not K or KF)? Not listed on Amazon, Newegg or Microcenter. Was it not sold retail? Wound up getting the "K" version even though I don't want to overclock.
I was just helping a friend today put together a system. We went with ryzen 5 5600 and an ASUS tuf gaming 2 plus WiFi motherboard as the platform. Paired with an rtx 2070. It was right within budget. The 12th gen would have put it 60-100$ over budget.

Extra $60-$100 for an i9-12900KS instead of Ryzen 5 5600 sounds like a pretty solid deal to me, considering the cpu benchmarks are 20%+ better on the 12900KS.
But I'm not sure you meant to lump every Intel 12th Gen chip together considering you only put a $40 price range on the whole category.

Huh. When someone has a budget of 1000$ for EVERYTHING. The ryzen was the winner. An i5 12600k was gonna put it 60-100$ more. An i9 was gonna put it 300-400$ above budget lol
But there's also some deals on Intel 11th gen that was considered but ultimately it came down to motherboard and features and pairing a cpu with an rtx 2070 that was gonna make sense.
I'm not trying to say anything negative against this post. I'm just saying if someone had a strict budget even the 12600k wasn't gonna be enough of a deal at 200$
