The article is probably not wrong pointing out the price at this point for Intel. However, at least am5 side (maybe am4? Amd refuses to let am4 die) there will be more CPUs releasing. Meaning, you will have to spend a lot less to jump to a newer CPU (while the rest stays. The boards will probably need a bios update, but that’s it).
For this to be actually good to go with Intel, the motherboard would have to be almost no cost via bundles or something (good price, offering boards outright would be amazing but very unlikely).
