How do I convince a co-worker (who says he used to have a job coding and modding games) that you don't need to spend $10,000 bucks on a gaming rig to get 60fps 1080?

Needs 1k more for custom parts. Ive checked all the pieces. I think this build would work, except for monitors, need adapters for some of them
