It begins with the speed of the graphics card. Imagine using a GTX 950 with a Pentium G3258, enjoying smooth 60fps in GeForce Experience even at lower settings. One day, while playing a AAA title such as Witcher 3, you notice a drop in performance despite your usual settings. You try increasing the clock speeds, but your GPU brand (like Asus) struggles to keep up. Eventually, you upgrade to a GTX 970 for smoother AAA gameplay at full frame rate. However, your CPU becomes the limiting factor, prompting you to upgrade to an i7 4790k. Now you achieve over 60fps on high-resolution titles on a 60Hz display, but you find yourself using G-Sync for smoother visuals. You switch to a 144Hz monitor with G-Sync and 1440p, then push your i7 and GTX 970 to their maximum settings. Your build transforms into an enthusiast level setup in under three years. Welcome to the competitive world.

This approach works for any interest. It began with a $50 guitar, but I realized it wasn’t sounding good enough. Now I’m using a $300 guitar and have about $1000 in equipment overall.

I'm running a 3930k with 390x under-water cooling and play Rocket League nonstop. I need a quicker PC.
