I want to wait for 13th gen CPUs, but I intend to buy a prebuilt. How long should I expect to wait?

Hello,

It's about time for me to upgrade from an old 2016ish Asus laptop to a full fledged desktop.

I was excited to buy a 12th gen i7 Intel/RTX3000 desktop, but with the new 13th gen suddenly coming out in October for nearly the same price/less power(?), I figured it would be a great idea to just wait for those.

I had my eyes set on one of those Skytech towers, as they seem reputable enough.

However, I realized that while Intel 13th gen CPUs will be available this month, they may not be sold in prebuilt computers for... a while.

How long do you think before those will hit the market? I'm new to this stuff, so I wasn't aware of how this worked with previous new chip releases.

After watching a good amount of content around building my own... I don't think I'll go that route.

Thanks!
