The point of diminishing returns approaches somewhat quickly, as many parts are just unnecessary for their price. I believe that after spending about $1500 on a balanced build, you already start to hit that point. Gaming is very graphics intensive, so going up to a GTX 1080 Ti (don’t buy RTX) brings good performance for the dollar, however the CPU for gaming is much cheaper as many cores are slow and not utilised well in most games. Anything beyond 16GB of RAM is pointless for gamers, even if you keep many programmes open. Motherboards and cooling are crammed with unnecessary features. Gaming doesn’t require lots of amazing parts, and higher prices only yield better performance after about $2000.
