    Objectively that's very poor value.

    Presumably you're going for a high end graphics card because that works out best value to drive a screen setup with lots of megapixels? While the extra spend does mean going for slightly more expensive components makes sense in terms of performance return compared to system price, high end components in a lot of areas never make financial sense for gaming.

    So the CPU, Power supply, hard drive, motherboard, CPU cooler and probably the memory are all things that'll you'll struggle to notice the difference with over a cheaper option.

    Whether they're worth it for the cool factor? Only you can decide.
