Here are my thoughts:
1. Asus board is better. I had issues with not recognizing nvme and slow boot time with MSI board. The MSI's default voltage is too high and causing high cpu temp, especially with enhanced turbo on. No issues with asus board although you need to get a nvme heatsink since it's not provided with the board.
2. I undervolted both CPUs. Set offset -0.070 and -0.05 and power limited 125w and 120w pl1/pl2 on 12900k and 13700k respectively. 12900k lost about 12% and 13700k lost about 18% in multi thread but the temperatures are <65 c under benchmark and still about 10% faster than 13600k. Gaming temp is around 50-55 c. Overall 13700k runs slightly hotter but still scores better than 12900k in multi thread.
If you are buying for gaming only, just get the 12900k. It's a lot cheaper and the fps is almost the same between these two CPUs.

I had the devils 13 gfx card in that which was about the most expensive rarest card there was (never buy the highest end new an rare stuff stuff ; it's not compatible often.) that card costs more than this kit here itself by far. Hell I was gonna crossfire the devils 13 making it a $2000-$3000 gfx card if I used 2 or $4000-$6000 if I used 4. But due to it being as rare as it was ; nothing supported it so definitely didn't crossfire it.

The current deal and link posted here is for an i7-13700k. The CPU listed in this deal is Raptor Lake 16-Core Desktop Processor.
I'm not too familiar with the deal or computers but just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something?
