My CPU costs the most (Fx 8350) but I got it from a friend with a motherboard (Asus M5 A97 R2.0) for 100€ for both, the most I've spent on a part was 180€ for a EVGA Nvidia GTX 750ti FTW with ACX Cooling.

$1K ram kit is the most I've ever spent on a solely used-for-PC part.

But I've had monitors and speakers run up to $1500

Think it's fair to say my monitor, which ended up being €420. They ended up charging me €100 shipping afterwards. Nice monitor though, I just should have done more research.

Asus B85M-G / Intel i5-4670 / Sapphire 290X Tri-X / 16GB RAM (Corsair Value 1x8GB + Crucial 2x4GB) @1333MHz / Coolermaster B600 (600W) / Be Quiet! Silent Base 800 / Adata SP900 128GB SSD & WD Green 2TB & SG Barracuda 1TB / Dell AT-101W / Logitech G502 / Acer G226HQL & X-Star DP2710LED

USD ~250 on my monitor and CPU. Beside those, not many parts went above USD 150. My 280x was about USD 125 :)

I initially only wanted to spend $900, but I failed to account for tax and shipping...
