When I built my current machine from random parts from different sources, I was able to pick and choose the components and the Ram and the hard drives (actually 2 separate 2 Tb M.2 drives) and a 14 TB RAID 5, with two Nvidia graphic cards. Win 10 to 11 was no big deal. It is pretty much impossible to build a custom Mac to fit your needs. Getting a Mac with 256 Gig of ram from the Apple store is basically impossible, and would cost a fortune. I just updated my motherboard BIOS a few days ago. Can one even update the BIOS on a Mac?

I have several mapping programs that simple REQUIRE Win 11 Pro.

Yea, Win 11 was quite different from 10, but it does not take long to get used to 11 and struggle with 10 on a different computer.

I have to use iTunes for my iPhone backup. There has never in the history of computers been a worse piece of software for the main market. It sucks big time, and it 100% illogical. I can't see my photos on it. The music is useless. It does back up my phone after I enter my iTunes password several times.

Win 11 has been bullet proof. I have never seen the blue screen of death, or had a crash. It just works for me. And I can swap components in the future if I want.
