AIO is currently $60 on Amazon according to another thread. Make this a $140 cpu. Not bad if you already have the ram and mobo.

14600k is better at multi thread workload but Intel's overclock/overvolt really killed quite a bit of them, I'd say after the BIOS downgrade, it's like -10% performance. Make sure you get your 14600K brand new from a legit source, and update the BIOS so your new 14600K won't die in a year. And if you have like 32GB+ left over DDR4 sticks and dont mind of -10% performance when comparing to DDR5, then buy a DDR4 board to go with 14600K will still work. Just FYI, DDR5 prices went up like 5x~10x, we are still in RAMageddon right now. No thanks to Open AI.

9600x if you want to bet on a chance to upgrade to Ryzen 9 10950X3D2 24cores 48 threads in the future.

I am personally using 9600x from the newegg Black Friday 2025 deal. 65W TDP is cool but most of the time CPU can use 105W. 105W is not hot, it's still cool.
