Newegg has Intel Core i5-12600KF Desktop Processor + ASRock Z690 Pro RS ATX Motherboard + 16GB XPG GAMMIX D10 DDR4 3200 RAM on sale for $327.99 - $67 when you apply promo code BTS349A = $260.99. Shipping is free.
Thanks community member Jaggsta for sharing this deal
Bundle Includes:
Intel Core i5-12600KF 12th Gen Alder Lake 10-Core (6P+4E) 3.7 GHz LGA 1700 125W Desktop Processor (BX8071512600KF)
ASRock Z690 Pro RS LGA 1700 Intel Z690 SATA 6Gb/s DDR4 ATX Intel Motherboard
For those that don't know, the i5-12600KF has no integrated graphics.
A solid 6P+4E CPU paired with motherboard and RAM at a solid price. Will require a GPU, but otherwise this looks like one of the more competitive Intel bundles relative to the plentiful $200-ish AMD bundles that have been available (such as prior MicroCenter CPU+MB deals).
Good luck!

Is this CPU capable of idling at fairly low power? I don't need a super powerful machine, but do need it to run 24/7, and therefore power consumption is a factor.
EDIT: Looks like the site just didn't like one of my proxy addresses, but didn't give me any indication that was what it was rejecting.

Does that mean no quicksync acceleration?
EDIT: It appears the answer to my question is that Quick Sync requires integrated graphics, therefore this does not have acceleration for things like h.264 codecs.

I have a 12600k in my unraid server, it uses about 63w at idle.

Not sure what OS you are using so YMMV

Pairs are normally better, but personally I'd just add another 16
