    No one but the once in a blue moon whales are spending 15,000 on a rig. The average rig I build for people is under 1,000 and the setups I see online are usually near there too.

      I have a dual 5090 threadripper rig with 192 GB of RAM and it cost $10k. To get to $15k on a consumer build you’d have to actually be trying to waste money.

        Let me introduce you too Falcon Northwest the perfect place to waste money on a PC. https://www.falcon-nw.com/desktops/rak you can configure that to a price of 47,000 +. Why anyone would want to is a mystery but you certainly can. And its probably comparable to your current system so it’s certainly in the “trying to waste money” category.
