Biggest non-performance spend: memory (+$835 over a solid baseline). Shifting that toward the GPU buys more frames.

CPU/GPU balancecosting ~7 pts

CPU-limited — measured at the 1080p reference, a faster CPU would unlock about +30% from the GPU you've chosen (median 104 fps today). CPU: enthusiast, GPU: high-end. Based on our most recent measurements.

Balance

GPU-bound (33%)

Your GPU (estimated high-end) is limiting performance for 1440p gaming. The CPU (estimated enthusiast) is 1 tier higher and has spare capacity your GPU isn't using. We don't have FPS data for either of these chips yet, so this is a spec-based estimate, not a measured verdict.
