People build it because they can.

Ok, if you want to use that analogy, fine. 65 mph speedlimit... mr twin turbo lambo spends $300,000 on his car, with a top speed of lets say 200 mph, gets to 65 mph just as quick as Mr. Bolt-On C6 Z06 who spends $85,000 on his car, which has the top speed of lets say 180 mph.... in the longrun, the Z06 owner is victorious cuz even tho they are being used for the same purpose, mr z06 got the better deal and didnt have to spend a fortune.
sure, the 3.0ghz is faster, but are you gonna use all of its potential, for that kind of money??? there is really no point in emptying your wallet for something that expensive...
People build fast, and overly-expensive computers cuz they feel they will have the "bigger pecker" when discussing their setup to others, but really, they will be retarted.
