I had a gaming PC in 2014. It was definitely better than that.

You paid more or less than $100 for it?

Irrelevant. The title says "The best computer from 2014," implying that that's what this build is. It is not. It's not even close. 2004 would get you a lot closer. Also 100 bucks in 2014 goes a lot farther than it does today because of inflation, and I'm assuming the person in the image is referring to $100 in 2024.

When a label is so obviously wrong, one should suspect irony.

Which, to be fair, could also be applied to your comments, though if you are trolling, you're doing so from the uncanny valley, which is risky if you care how it's received.

You don't have to explain to me that posting is "serious business." I'm not new to webzones.
