ok so this https://secure.newegg.com/WishList/MySavedWishDetail.aspx?ID=20931111 is my friends new gaming rig set up along with random things.

 

how do i reasonably talk someone out of buying all that crap? lol the dude just got around 20 thousand dollars and he wants to blow all that on a new gaming pc, to me it looks like he just want crazy using the highest price search feature on newegg. so how the hell do i convince him not to buy that. oh and that doesnt include his stupid custom watercooling set up hes buying from another site which includes water cooling the ram and everything.
