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.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

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.
