That's why you just build a gaming PC for 3x the price and just replace parts for 3x the price until what you want comes out.
Would this be a good game for someone who sucks at video games? As in, is it story/puzzle based and less technical skill based?
This better be a private school

Excuse me, my crimes obviously involved interstate commerce so that I could get charged federally.
It's funny because Americans have been radicalized against taxes saying its wage theft and taking away all their earnings..., but historically, when taxes increase, firms have an incentive to pay their workers more so wages generally increase with tax increases. You're pecking at the reason why tit works that way. It's arguably counter intuitive but that's why the propaganda against higher taxes works so well.
Yeah my sli was useless about 4 years ago when games stopped supporting it. That's why I'm giving her my 2nd card because it's useless in my rig.
As for a new build for me, I should probably just wholesale and upgrade to a DDR5/current chip mobo because I think my i7 6700 is really what's holding me back past my card.
I vaguely remember ~7 years ago when I built it having issues with the gpus. The main issue was that I needed to boot my OS with a single card, get everything up and running, then shut down again and add the SLI and 2nd card. I also vaguely remember thinking the wiring was silly but it worked and for 7 years it was "if it ain't broke don't fix it" until now.
Update on my building journey: my wife's new build (waiting for 3 more case fans):
Posting this on all threads:
Fixed: this was my first ever build and after reseating my gpu, I saw some less than intelligent wiring (6+2 pin coming out of my card, daisy chained to a 6 pin that then went into the VGA port on my power supply). I cringed and pulled those wires and replaced it with a PCIE cable from my wife's new build (the reason I removed my 2nd 1080 in the first place). That cable only went into a CPU slot on the power supply but didn't think much of it. Turns out using cables that are not associated with your specific PSU is a nono. Everything works fine and I am dumb for several reasons but at least I learned with (seemingly) no catastrophic consequences.
Thank yall for your help and consideration and sorry I wasted your time.

Not sure if the adverse tariff effects would be screwing us by the 6 month mark. That's my major concern. I guess I could get a 3080 or 4080 ( though I feel like the 30 is better value ) right now and hold off on wholesaling my mobo/cpu/ddr4 but I feel like my cpu would then be a major bottleneck compared to everything else.
Side note, I've been an Intel guy my whole building career and I'm 100% jumping ship for AMD. Intel shat the bed and pulled the sheets over it and now their whole room smells like shit and I want no part of it. Cool to see hardly anyone even mentioning Intel chips now.
