Newegg has it for $10 cheaper with coupon code but they offer it with a replacement only return policy. I'd rather pay Amazon $10 more for the opportunity to return for a full refund.
B&H and BestBuy has the $25 off $250 AMEX offer for those who have it on their cards. NewEgg is now doing $10 off, so $240. To note, the i5-13600k, for +$50, seems like a much better buy (unless you really want to be on AM4).

Newegg alternatively has 11% off with sitewide with ZIP pay. Code ZIP11. 7600X is about $222 before tax.
But you can buy a whole lot more other stuff at the same time. Max $100 discount. Make sure you re-enter the code after adding things to the cart.
It's really a toss up. Similar gaming performance but one platform is a dead end. The 5800x3d also has more cores. Paying 250 for a 6 core 12 thread in 2022 just feels kinda bad.

Since they both have similar multicore scores, core count doesn't mean much.
I'd love to do AM5 but I have 48 GB of DDR4 Corsair Vengeance in my previous build I don't want to give up.
What's your memory configuration? 48GB is an odd number. I'm assuming that it's something like 16x2 and 8x2, but how does that work with the timings? I don't really know that much...I'm just curious. I just buy them 2 or 4 sticks at a time, but all matched.
