Certainly, the decision is yours, but you should follow what feels right for you. I wanted to leave this as a final note. I’ve heard the same concerns when setting up my 12700k system—it gets too hot, consumes a lot of power. You’ll need a jet turbine for cooling. Also, keep in mind that the actual performance numbers from reviews and forum discussions usually reflect early-stage problems. Updates to BIOS firmware and drivers often fix those issues, especially with newer generations like the 12th. If you prefer a Ryzen setup, that’s the better option for you. Good luck!

I switched from an am4 to a z690 board and an i5 12600kf. So far, I'm satisfied. However, I understand your concerns about power usage, especially in most areas of the USA.
