The recent release of the Intel Arrow Lake refresh processors has added a new lease of life to building an Intel-based system. A mix of performance uplifts paired with reasonable pricing makes Intel's new chip more competitive with AMD and offers some choice as to what build route you take with a new system build. This Newegg PC components bundle pairs the latest Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus processor with an Asus ROG Strix Z890-E motherboard and 32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 RAM for $799.99, that's $259.98 under the $1059.97 asking price. The savings you make from purchasing a bundle deal like this can then be used to fund an SSD, or GPU, etc.
The new Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus processor is no slouch, and in our recent review of the new Arrow Lake refresh chips we benchmarked the CPUs and as you can see from the below charts, it's competing for the top spot in multi-threaded performance, topping the list in single-threaded performance, and only lagging slightly behind the 14900K in gaming performance.
So, if you're looking to get hands-on and knock up a shiny new PC build anytime soon, this Newegg combo bundle is definitely worth a look. The new Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus is a great new processor, and perfect for both a productivity and gaming PC. It might not be as fast as an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor at 1080p, but at higher gaming resolutions the advantages of that giant L3 cache start to dissipate. For under $800, this bundle is very attractive.
