Are many computer parts Advertisements for CPU, RAM, GPU Overrated?

I feel online and magazine ads, and the boxes for newer CPUs like the Intel Core i9, newer RAM types like DDR4 Gaming RAM, and video cards/GPU can be overrated where they use fast looking pictures, and a lot of exciting descriptions to say how great the computer parts are.

I don't think so, haven't seen them ads irl. But they are mostly on shopping websites and social media pages about tech.

Computer parts ads mostly appear on PC magazines, and sometimes newspaper ads for local electronic stores.

We loaded like a mock ad on all of our PCs at staples, they do kind of make the specs shine even though most either want a big screen or just a simple machine for emails.

Does Staples also load a mock ad for non-Windows computers like Google Chromebooks and Apple iMac/Macbook?

Well, of course they are overrated.

Otherwise, people would never spare a glance at them. Well, that includes me as well. I read reviews before finalizing stuff though.

somewhat, though it isn't really heavy for the chromebooks.

I'm guessing not many Chromebook care as much about buying a very fast computer, and mainly need a simple computer for e-mail, web browsers, office work, and using some Android apps at a decent speed.
