Thanks for the feedback here. Ill monitor and see if theres anything else between now and when i pick it up at MC.
Probably this. I got the 14700 bundle, and besides the future proofing, it probably was a waste of money for just the web browsing and YouTube watching I do. I never go above 2 percent cpu utilization.

This is a value-sweet deal. If I had money I would go for this than a new gen i5 or i7.
Amazon has $50 360 aios
I think you meant AM5 not AM4. I bought the 7700x deal. Paired with a 4080 super and a 750 watt psu. If I had gone with the Intel bundle I would have had to s p end more on a beefier psu and this bundle is $50.00 more than the 7700x bundle was.
This deal: no upgrade path- guaranteed that the next jump is *another* bundle... 136W more put me into also needing to bump my PSU so that's another $100+ on top
7700X: CPU replacement options for another decade without a guaranteed Mobo jump. (AM4 is still getting CPUs at year 9 and counting, Intel's dropping the 1700 after 3 years). And better single threaded performance anyways
