I wouldn’t consider a 8700k or a 2080 super high level specs or even mid level right now.
Consider that an 8700k is slower than a 13400f today which is considered the absolute lower end of the mid range, realistically 13600k or 13700 is the mid range on the intel side.
To be blunt the 8700k is 5 years old.
The 2080s is well look at this chart and you make a decision
I think a lot of people are just not appreciative of how out of date their hardware is relative to consoles atm
Depends on the time of the year,
During the summer I’d have one before and after work, during winter once a day or once every two days
