I found a used i9-13900KF for sale at $220. The seller claims he bought it less than a month ago but didn't use it much since he switched to a different CPU. He's also offering a 30-day return and has a high seller rating. Despite some known instability issues, do you think it's worth taking the risk? By the way, he has a 13700K for $200 available too, which he also barely used.

Before jumping in, do you already have an LGA1700 motherboard? If you don’t, it might not be a good idea to invest in a platform that seems to be phasing out.

Honestly, there doesn't seem to be a better deal for productivity right now, so it could be worth it.
