The pricing on most of the CPUs with UHD IGP are terrible. A $140 for 4 core Raptor Lake in 2024? That's a tough sell. If you already committed to the LGA 1700 build the 12400 for $152.70 is the best value including IGP IMO. Unless you need quick sync, Newegg has the 12600KF for $125 (6P+4E will be great for productivity and handling ever increasing OS and app demands) which I'd combine with a cheap used dGPU as a display adapter.
Or as was recommended pair it with an A380 if you need full media support. The Sparkle is $100 on sale at Newegg and Amazon. Amazon being higher volume is backed up and won't ship for a week or 2, so da egg would be my choice. The A380 can play most games great at 1080. It is only the latest couple of years of AAA stuff where it struggles. Even then a little upscaling makes most enjoyable and hardware XeSS is impressive. I was able to play the Spiderman games with ray tracing on using XeSS and have it fully playable with acceptable visuals. 14100 would probably choke at times in those games due to demands of ray tracing and asset streaming. The 12600KF would be buttery smooth.
Tech Junky is right though, the platform is dead. And the high end Intel CPUs always hold value because of that constant platform change. Owners looking for that one last CPU upgrade without swapping boards and reinstalling the OS with a new license, usually pay a premium for the convenience.
