I would love to hear the details. I've found learning is an itch that's a bit difficult to scratch once out of college, so I take any chance I get.

Sounds like you should build your own Kampfer, assuming you have the time.  I built my current machine, and loved it in part because I learned a lot.  Just learned some new stuff about it last night.  My puter engineer son is here and we were looking at MSI Afterburner graphs on my machine performance after running Aces High.  Without going into the details it seems I had been misreading the outputs and concluding framerate on my machine was limited by my 1060 GPU.....turns out I was wrong and it is my dual core i3 cpu that seems to be limiting performance.  That being said I'm still happy with overall performance, but now I know if/when I decide to upgrade I'll start with a new CPU.

Good luck and have fun whatever you do!
