all that engineering and EE design.. into a faulty platform.. RIP
Wouldnt say it's faulty, especially if you don't care about gaming. Very positive benchmarks for productivity and power efficiency. Prices are still pretty high for the new platform though.

High memory latency with fast binned ram.
Weird random low synthetic performance including a browser benchmarks like Spedometer 2.0 reporting slower numbers than a 12900k.
Slow in MS office.
Gaming DOA
Somehow good at rendering and power efficiency, but the pros don't outweigh the cons. Intel already scrapped the refresh. EOL CPU/Socket.
Anyone who bought a 12th gen combo in early-mid 2023 has no reason to swap either. 12900k + board was only $350-400 total and still holds it's own in pretty much every metric aside from max FPS in games.
