Anyone know where to get one for less than $300 in stock right now? Amazon and others are inflating the price. Is it a big difference between the 13400 vs this to complete a build?

The 13500 has 14 cores and 20 threads

The 13400 has 10 cores and 16 threads

Passmark scores show these advantages to the 13500, for whatever you think that is worth:

Overall 22%

Yeah, I'm using it for the igpu, is the 770 vs 730 integrated graphics that much better?
Newegg still hasn't received that cpu even though everyone else in the world not named US has had them for two weeks or more now. That cpu is supposed to retail for $250.
Ah ok. I see Amazon has it for $300 but best buy says out of stock. Should it be released within the next week or so for US?

It should be released here within the next two weeks. The US isn't just getting hosed on that cpu but we're also getting hosed on those Gigabyte B760 DDR5 boards that the Euros and Aussies have had for two weeks now.
