After a few months of planting the seed. I finally convinced a colleague to stop chasing the top 10% of the preformance scale and enjoy the other 90% for half the price. Happy with the build and the cost of around £1200. He want to spend 3k on a 4080, DDR5 AMD 6 Series CPU ect he mainly plays DOTA and a few single player games. I feel like the review sites and all the preformance graphs get people chasing numbers just for the sake of it sometimes and then spending way over budget without giving price per preformance a glance. Just my little rant for today.

    Hello Ge0rdie, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/gamingpc) if you have any questions or concerns.*
