For $160 more go with the AM5 version instead. Best gaming CPU on the market right now and next gen is likely to be in the same socket. Deal here: https://slickdeals.net/f/18356128-powerspec-g723-pc-amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d-rtx-5080-64gb-ddr5-2tb-ssd-2400-select-stores-free-store-pickup?src=fron

2k is what your paying for the CPU and 5080 alone. It's a good deal
24 core 32 threads vs 8 core 8 threads

Not only is the Intel LGA1700 dead (you won't be able to upgrade to a better CPU in the future without replacing the mobo), I wouldn't trust 13/14th gen intel with the oxidation and degradation issues. Yes intel claims it's fixed, but they've bumbled this whole thing. Time will tell how bad it actually is.
100% go AMD in my opinion. This is coming from someone who has a 12th gen intel chip.

If you are gaming at 1440p and 9800x3d is not much better. 9800x3d has some fried chip issues tho.

It's an excellent pre-built. I couldn't have built it myself for that price (especially when I factor in what my time is worth).
Gaming: ✅ G723 Better 1% lows, less power draw ✅ G480 Higher max FPS, better multitasking
AI Inferencing (LLM, SDXL): ✅ G723 Better VRAM bandwidth (GDDR7) ✅ G480 More threads for prep pipelines
AI Ops + Multi-threaded Agents: ❌ G723 8-core cap ✅ G480 24-core beast for agent fanning
Thermal Performance: ✅ G723 360mm AIO = cool and quiet ⚠️ G480 May need better airflow
Futureproof I/O (USB4, WiFi 7): ✅ G723 Locked and loaded ❌ G480 Less forward-facing tech

Possibly a hardware flaw that is semi remediated by microcode updates. I have a 13900KS I retired last month for a 9800X3D and 9950X3D subsequently. While it was still functioning, the system was showing instability finally after over a 1.5 years of usage finally.
I would avoid 13/14th Gen at this point for prebuilts. Many fanboys will keep pushing for a 9800X3D but if you can get a good deal on a prebuilt, a 265K or 285K is perfectly fine if the price difference is significant over a 9800X3D build and has the same GPU.
