UK elecy price is 34p-kwh from Oct 1st and these could run to 650w power draw along with Intel heater chips it's gonna get real expensive real quick. Hope you don't pay the bill.

This is why I dont see 4xxx series being a good solution even if you bag a great deal. It costs you heavily in the long run.
 
I really like those designs! ASUS always tickle my fancy with their coolers. But as already said, completely unsustainable price-wise.

All gamers should be asking themselves:

Do I...

a) Game at 4k 144hz for one hour per day and not go on holiday for two years

b) Game at 1440p 144Hz for three hours per day and go on two holidays this year

Or c, just prioritizing on actually living your life, without having to scrap by on basically everything with higher costs of living across the board, which isn't looking to be easing any time soon unfortunately?...

"All GAMERS should be asking themselves..."

I totally understand what you mean, but a gamer isn't suddenly going to stop and meditate and appreciate that they could buy a tin of baked beans for their family today. Higher cost of living is hurting virtually all of us. I'm very concerned about not just my own welfare but all those in my community that I care about. But gamers are gonna game until it's physically impossible.
