I was browsing the massive, collated Hardware Recommendations page and noticed there’s a top 5 for everything from motherboard and GPU to Case and Fan, and thought it would be rather interesting to see how a PC built entirely using components that scored “best overall” at a given moment in time might A) perform in modern games and B) compare to the prebuilt PC that similarly take the “best overall” crown, both in performance and price.
It’s the sort of thing that could be done every couple of years, and I assume at little cost, given you’d need to already have the parts available to review them.
Maybe it’s already been done and I’ve just missed it, maybe it’s a bad idea for some reason I haven’t worked out, but I think it would be neat, and maybe also help people make a decision regarding building from components vs buying complete, seeing money saved or performance gained (or lost, as the case may be!)
Thanks
