Either will come much later or distros makan the margin gap and maintain prices with excuses of tariffs, RM getting shittier, USD getting stronker, petrol subsidy removal, egg subsidy removal, blah blah blah... (pick whichever they want to use).

TLDR; dont put your buying decision on expectation it will come.

Dont have experience with AMD CPU but seems like its no longer as bad as it was before. Then again AMD CPU platform also no longer the value oriented as before and now even more expensive than Intel coz distros/dealers know its the hot thing today.
Still if you want hassle free and more stable system, Intel is tops but if your okay with lesser stability and frequent agesa bios updates just for ultimate gaming perf, then its AMD.

Depends which pros & cons you can live with.

12400F + MSI B760M Mortar Wifi DDR5. Have plenty of future forward features like DDR5, Gen5 GPU slot, and 3x Gen4 M2 SSD, wifi 6E on E-key slot so can upgrade to WIfi7. LGA1700 platform still can future upgrade to 14700K next time.

Also future AM5 support is not guaranteed like what happen to AM3+/AM4 until people make noise.

My advice is please think twice before choosing Intel.

First, the LGA1700 socket is nearing the end of its life. If you go with a B-series motherboard, your upgrade path will essentially stop at the 14700K, there is no real future beyond that.
Secondly, the 13th/14th gen CPUU degradation issue is still unresolved. Although Intel claimed that the previous microcode update had fixed the problem, they just released yet another microcode (0x12F) a few days ago. Honestly, no one knows when this will be fully resolved. My own 13900K has already suffered from this issue, so I'm speaking from experience. Anyway, I am still own a 13700K PC but i have given to my son.

If you're looking at the LGA1851 platform, just keep an eye on the 265K, the price is expected to drop to around +-RM1,300. However, keep in mind that LGA1851 might only support a single generation, as the entire Ultra Core series CPUs are crap. There's a rumor that Intel might introduce a new platform next year. That said, if you're planning to keep the system for several years, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Upgrade path is til 14th Gen which is still plenty powerful. Apa lagi mau? Normal users wont need up to 16 Pcores CPU wat. Degradation thing is still ongoing deswai I chose with 12400F, this no such issue. Wait it out until Intel finally fixes it. There are manual ways to prevent it too. AM5 CPUS are also dying so its not just an Intel thing.

AMD talk about longevity of Ryzen platform too but early gen AM4 mobos originally were deprecated from Ryzen 5000 CPU upgrades until people start making noise about AMD janji dicapati where they backtrack and found ways to support newer gen CPUS. So trust all these future longevity talk with jars of salt. No one can predict the future much less Lisa Su.

Imho Intel LGA1700 has flexibility to go either expensive (Ksku & Z790) or budget level (nonK & B760 DDR4) whereas AM5 is exclusive expensive anyhow. LGA1700 might have ended (unless Bartlett Lake?) but CPU tech has progress so much that even few gens old wont feel it lagging. So choice is depends what your budget and what you want to do with it. No wrong or right.
