This deal is great. $400 for the price of what is regularly around $750. Basically paid the price of the CPU and got the mobo and DDR5 32gb ram.
Good luck and Gods blessings. Hope you have fun gaming on it. What video card are you getting?
Nice deal! I have no use case for it, but have been tempted just because the price is so damn good.
Me too bro, literally finishing up…just waiting for the steam library to sync.
Congrats!!
Man, if this had been $400 Canadian I would’ve been all over that like yellow on a banana. Congrats and have an amazing build :D
Loving mine, enjoy!
I got it a 3 weeks ago, so far so good!
I got similar bundle from Newegg for $399 - 12900k + Asus TUF Z690 + 32GB DDR5 6000 Very satisified.
hey… i have a question… what bios version did the Motherboard come with?
i got the same bundle and ordered a 14700kf with it and planing to sell the 12900k new and just install the 14700 but I’m worried they didn’t update the bios, even though in the listing in newegg it says its “12&13th gen ready”
It had 2703 BIOS. It looks like you need 2803 for 14th gen CPUs - this BIOS update was released after I received the board.
Make sure to get a thermalright contact frame for it!
$400 for that deal is pretty incredible.
Tell me how you like it, I plan on getting that one too.
Btw, what power supply you running with that bad boy?
Congrats! Enjoy the build!
I got the same deal about two months ago. I’m a fan.
DDR5 motherboard though. Wasn’t compatible with the Ripjaws, so I got 32gigs of OLOY memory which I’m now running at 6800mhz.
Got my processor up to 53/43 stable on liquid metal and both an AIO and custom loop.
I feel like I’ve finally climbed overclocking mountain though as I’m now looking at just running lower clocks on a silent build.
13600K is faster in games, and even multi threaded in a lot of cases, the 13th gen was a big step up, best hope you get a z790, many bios updates still don’t let you support a 13-14th gen especially on b660 regardless to manufacture said even with firmware, tried this on 3 4 b660 boards
$300 motherboard, $375 CPU, $50 ram nice find
