I went for an i9-12900k, but I only paid $200 for it at Microcenter. If the pricing between a 12th gen i9 and 13th gen i7 is simiar though, the latter is the wise choice as it outperforms the 12th gen.

Nah... Just don't do it. Better to go with i7-13700k bundle deals... Trust me.

Why? What is the benefit, assuming pricing is better on 12th gen?

I did the math on it about a week ago. The 13700 was about 10% faster for 8.8% more cost at the time I looked it up. That's a good value.

$400 for the i9-12900k vs $500 (now) for the i7-13700k is a bit more interesting, but isn't that 25% more for the 13th gen setup? Or are you comparing just the CPU, not the full Microcenter deal? Just looking at CPU alone, fully agreed it's a more difficult decision for most. To me the main benefit of the newer setup is faster per-thread (per core) speeds, which is where most will "feel" the speeds the most.

Like I said, it was based on prices a week or so ago. The spread at the time was about $30-40. Even if that's not possible today, you are likely to see similar deals in the near future.

Only talking about the processor as this is a deal for only the processor, and most people don't live near a Microcenter.

13700 is currently $363 on eBay and $370 at Amazon.

MC has it comb with giga 690 mb for $399, which was I got. I wish I could hold on for two more weeks for the deal of "13700k with a asus 790 mb for $500. But the z-690 mb has more slots ports though.

I got in on the MC deal for the 13700k, z790 mobo, and 32gb ram for $465 and never looked back. Hopefully they will redo that deal soon now that the 14th gen is on the horizon.
