At least for the 265s, you're almost certainly better off buying a newegg bundle with a motherboard. Example with asrock z890 pro-a wifi https://www.newegg.com/Product/Co...bo.4772221

I got the bundle with the pro-a non wifi a few weeks ago and it's been fantastic

Most gamers better off buying Ryzen 5 9600X for $185 on [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/AMD-RyzenT...229&sr=1-1) at the moment. Still an Ultra ripoff at this price.

But Intel's better for productivity. The Core Ultra 235 ties with the Ryzen in single core performance and smokes it in multicore due to its 14 cores. And some boards are also cheaper (Asrock for instance), so you end up with maybe paying $35 more for Intel which is reasonable considering it delivers +25% better multicore performance in PassMark (which is even a bit higher than a Ryzen 9800X3D).

Yes, you are correct. if you are doing productivity then it can be a good purchase. I'd definitely check benchmarks for specific applications before deciding, because I heard it can be a mixed bag of results according to Linus Tech Tips. In some productivity benchmarks, Intel's own 14th gen CPUs beats the Ultra CPUs.

True, but what these reviewers often leave out is that the 14th gen also draws more power. The 235 runs with 65W (Turbo 121W). While the comparable 14600K sucks 125W / 181W. That's almost double the power draw for approximately the same performance. Which is also something that gamers might not care for, but more important for a silent system where you work on.

Electricity matters depending on where you live and how much you use the machine. I'm from California, where electricity prices can be as bad as 50+ cents per kW. Those people should be more concerned about power draw compared to those who live in an area where electricity only costs 10 cents per kW. Also those running it 24/7 as a server should be more concerned than a gamer playing 2 hours / day. Some professionals also need a quiet machine and lower wattage CPUs can help!

Hold off for now and wait for a price drop. Demand is low since these offer no performance improvement over the previous generation socket.
