I never implied that. I'd still have invested more into a CPU so let's say... 13400 or 12700 + second-hand RTX 3060 (if the OP can find a seller to trust).
13400 is same architecture as 12400, besides slightly higher clocks and four e cores. Despite being called "Raptor Lake" it still uses Alder Lake cores. Not worth 40% more money, there's practically zero advantage in gaming (3.7% faster according to TPU, at 720p, less at higher resolutions). 12700 could be good if paired with a much stronger GPU, but you're not going to be CPU limited either way, and Ampere is a lot less efficient than Ada, so power draw would increase, but FPS wouldn't.

When you use pcpartpicker you can pick a country and it will use local pricing.
crap site. and doesn't have lotta of hw, OR showing that "no one buys this", but in reality the part is pretty ok...

well, tests show that it DOES have performance difference. but, there are 12600kf for the price of 13400f (who needs igpu in BUDGET build?), which blows 13400/f away because of higher clocks...

It's like what, 40 dollars? It's about 5% if we talk full PC cost. And this thing is significantly faster in AI and whatever MT workload. By 25 percent sometimes. Would've voted i7-12700 anyway.
Despite being called "Raptor Lake" it still uses Alder Lake cores
Better binning makes for better energy efficiency. Also I DO know it's not a real Raptor.

Who says it's better binned? Higher clocks on the same architecture, so less efficient unless you're in a situation where the four e cores are useful.

It is slightly more efficient in synthetic all core load, but doesn't sound like OP is doing much machine learning or AI work.
