I hope to buy a split mechanichal keyboard (Leaning towards the Sofle with Gateron Milky Yellows) with the remaining wiggle room. I already own a decent mouse.

    The 12c and 16c 3d v-cache models are slightly slower for gaming because they have an extra core chiplet without 3d vcache, and without fiddling with the system scheduler, you have some losses to inter-CCX latency as tasks are assigned to the second non-vcache CCX. I don't have encoding/compilation needs which are beyond the capabilities of an 8 core.
