Might be but I haven't seen them lower than $320 since they released.

Just a FYI...

Faulty DRM breaks dozens of games on Intel's Alder Lake CPUs

I would hold off intel chips till they work the bugs out.

A number of these games removed the included malware, aka Denuvo, due to this 'incompatibility'.
It's the DRM software at fault, not Intel.

Yeah but there are too many AMD fanboys or those who don't like the total cost of entry to upgrade to 12th gen on here. I get it, but this vs 5600x for the same price, for all the "future proofing" folks want and performance this is the better chip.
