I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

    Well, my new workplace selected it and paid for it, I just have to use it.

    Personally I’d have gone with the AMD CPU, at home I rock a 5800X3D :)

    Intel’s power consumption is off the charts unfortunately. Those e-cores didn’t help at all.

      Intel is a joke, and it will only stop when they actually use lower nanometre node process, instead of stacking a + every year on top of +++++++ marketing stack.
