Spending this much for a Laptop CPU that is soldered to the motherboard that cannot be upgraded is a major deal breaker for me personally.

Sure but this isn't some low wattage limited CPU. It's a desktop CPU for all intents and purposes.

Anecdotally, I've built PCs for 20+ years now and have only ONCE upgraded my CPU without replacing the motherboard. I think most Intel buyers would agree that with how often they change the socket it's almost unavoidable that you'll replace both when you upgrade in 5 years.

Glad you posted this. I built a pc in 2019 with a 2080 super that I'm looking to upgrade. I'm told my 10850k is probably OK, but I'd need a new motherboard if I do decide to replace it. So, there's little benefit in a removable cpu if you can only replace it with something in the same generation.

I'm still using an i9 10850k, and as long as you're not playing at 1080p on a high refresh rate monitor, it should be ok. I would upgrade the GPU before the CPU. Also, you should be able to give it an all core OC to 5ghz without much fuss if you have the cooling headroom.

Check all the numbers here . Starting out with 5070ti can't be purchased for less than 1000 is already wrong. 30 seconds of research I'm seeing 829 in stock on Best buy without any sort of deal hunting

I'm on a 10850k as well with a 4070 and playing all of the flagship games just fine TBH. Upgrade the GPU if you can and you'll still be fine.

Doesn't the 5070ti laptop version have 12GB VRAM, vs 16GB for this desktop version?

Edit: nvm you mentioned CPU not GPU

Please post the link to this supposed $829 5070 TI

Thanks Captain Obvious for reminding us all to "check prices" and see that you can't build anything close to this for this price.

sold out now. It was the MSI Shadow. In stock for about 20 minutes.
How convenient. So like I said, can't buy one under $1k.

Who the heck would pay $3400 for this?? Barely worth $1765.

Why the sarcasm? I did not post the comment about it being available just backing up what the other poster said was in fact true at the time they made the statement. So much of slickdeals are deals that last less than 10 minutes so 20 minutes should be more than enough for this crowd to make a purchase. I would try not to get too upset by people posting friendly information on a deal thread. They probably helped a few slickdealers get a great deal on a 5070ti with their post on this deal.

Because a sale that lasts 20 minutes doesn't change my comment whatsoever. 5070ti is not EASILY and COMMONLY available under $1k.

And they didn't help anyone without posting a link.
