Heatsink not included
CPU model does have onboard/integrated graphics support
So many deals are built around the series without GPU support (such as the F and X series) so this is a noteworthy inclusion here.
Good luck!

As a side note, using ddr4 rather than ddr5 with 12th gen intel procesors does actually have a substantial impact on performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV3fDDL
Overall, if you need a super cheap bundle right now this is an ok deal, but nothing special. If you can afford to wait, I'd recommend doing so. If your budget isn't quite as tight and you need a bundle immediately, I'd recommend the $400 7700x bundle over this one. Even though at $400 it's substantially more expensive than it's gone on sale for in the past, it's still a better value, though once again I'd wait if you don't have an urgent need.
If Microcenter starts shipping, they'll raise prices to cover. Thankfully I live near one and I'll gladly drive there to keep a few more dollars out of Amazon & Newegg.

Flawless build that has served me well paired with a RTX3080.

Edit: Price on the i9 bundle just went up $20 5 minutes after I took the screen shot.
