@hux lovely looking earphones, what brand are they? They look like a serious pair of customs, what made you go with standard tips rather than getting them moulded?

@crinkleshoes was this a pretty easy upgrade?

Seems a bit poor in the scheme of things... with that amount of money, I'd just ring Overclockers and ask for a unique custom build to be done exactly how I wanted, with one-off cooling, colour scheme, mods etc.
Starting point would be something from the 8 Pack range for example:
My basket at Overclockers UK:
- 1 x 8Pack OrionX Dual System Extreme Overclocked PC - Intel Core i9 7980XE & Intel Core i7 8086K= £26,999.99
- 1 x 8Pack Polaris MK2 - Intel Core i9 7920X @ 4.7GHz Extreme Overclocked PC= £10,999.99

Half the fun for most on here though is building it yourself.
The thing is, people with money, have money because they don't waste it unnecessarily on things they don't think are worth it.
You've read the last few pages of this thread right?![]()
But equally half the point of doing an "e-peen" build is to have something else that's unachievable for 99% of others - if money's no object, you can do something far more inspired than just buying a few top end components and bolting them together.
I'd be looking at bespoke cooling solutions (e.g. is phase change still viable?), custom fabricated case, one-off airbrushing maybe? Stuff that actually blurs the line between "is that actually a PC, or is it a masterpiece?"
why is there such a problem with people spending their money how they want?
I am disappointed he hasn't gone Apple, get the most expensive and then Bootcamp into windows![]()
