How much should I spend on gaming hardware?

Budget $2k–$5k for a solid test setup. Source products through manufacturers and affiliate programs.

Which games should I test?

AAA titles (Cyberpunk, Elden Ring, Starfield) and esports titles (Valorant, CS2) for diverse performance data.

Both. Peripherals are less saturated and have high affiliate commissions.

Show real gameplay footage with FPS overlays. Compare thermals, power consumption, and price-to-performance.

Popular esports monitors (240Hz or 360Hz). Then move to high-refresh 4K monitors.
