Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.

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.
13600KF for $250 on Amazon right now seems like a nice deal unless you need 14th gen
could get away with a 12600KF with a 4070 but I think it's worth paying more for the raptor lake cores. alder lake is gonna struggle a bit with 1% lows by comparison
you can get i7 12700Kf for $200 at amazon.com. You can't beat this value. Even i5 12600KF for $140 at amazon.com will be enough but i7 retains resale value better.
