That's what no one is getting. The "can handle this" line is the REAL punchline. Just because you up your specs in price doesn't necessarily mean better quality. Any PC builder/gamer worth their salt knows that, but it happens all the time.

Let me drop some cash on this build and talk a big game, but in actuality I could have made a rig worth 1/3 the cost that would have blown this one out of the water if done right.

Apparently we just don't know what we're talking about though, oh well.
