The 12700k only makes sense if you're using it for the extra productivity.
Realistically though, your best bang for the buck is going to be ponying up just $40 more and getting the 7700x bundle so you can be on the am5 platform with 32gb of ddr5.

The issue with the bundles used to be the cl36 ram used in the am5 bundles. They upgraded that to cl32 and it has been fine.
But, the $370 7700x bundle is a better buy than both of these, so I would buy that.

These days, it's mostly ram issues, not mobo issues. I've had the 7700X bundle since August (with the "lowly" B650-P board) and other than the cruddy ram (which I swapped to a better kit and returned the bundled ram) it's been amazing. They've recently swapped the ram out to something better, so the ram issues should be a lot better, if not solved completely

I honestly look forward to Intel's release of similar 3d cache technology on their cards. Their CEO addressed this in a recent interview and stated they will be bringing it in future CPU's. It's exciting to say the least!
