Power Cables diminishing returns

I'm thinking of upgrading my PCs, but am wondering what the sweat spot is as far as price. The price point after which, you see diminishing returns. for example a $1000 is certainly not twice as good as a $500 cable.

A $20,000 amplifier might be well off with a pricier powercord than a $1,000 amplifier. Personally I would stick to a simple percentage for wires. 10% is a nice number. And is what i have (considering all equipment costs compared to all wire costs excluding power conditioners.. With conditioners my cost hits 15% of system cost. And for those screaming i am a shill for a particular powercord... note I never mentioned it even once here.. When I certainly could have.
