Not within the context of PC gaming. Diminishing returns would kick in rapidly.
Well leave off the 4k monitors and I think it might get into the $50k range.
Checking now
Ok looks like to get a fully loaded HP Z820 with the following its just shy of $30,000
Dual 3.10GHz 8core xeons
256GB ECC 1600 ram (8 channel)
dual Nvidia Quadro K5000 (w/ 4GB vram) (basically the quadro ver of the GTX680 w/ 4GB)
6x 300GB SSD's in raid 6
1125w 90% eff powersupply
5/5/5 warranty
Toss in 2x ZR30w and you're just about at $30k and its would be the most beast system currently buildable
I'd then addon a qnap nas for mass/long term storage (instead of putting a large HDD in the system just use a iscsi lun and have even more storage) and since it'd be a MOAB I'd get the 10 drive 1079 pro and put in a dual 10gig nic as well as max the qnap on ram.
