This will probably be the 2nd achievement you will have left along with accruing 1 million. I would advise to do this on your way to that since you will need around roughly 600k to get this.
To add on to Matheus' solution, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 TI Xtreme Waterforce WB 11G is the most expensive item from the watercooling shop so you would have to purchase that app as well.
Now this GPU is the most expensive sitting at $1,550 but once it's in your inventory, like every item in the shop, it loses it's value by around 60% so it will be worth $517 NOT THE $1500 YOU SPENT ON IT.
Doing the math and taking into account you don't really have anything in your inventory, you will need to purchase between 385-400 of these GPUs and spend between 600-650k. I had to purchase 386 with little in my inventory costing me close to 600k.
Once you have done this reload a previous save to continue progress to your 1 million.

A lot of the time with the 3DMark upgrade jobs you are given more than enough budget to replace everything and meet the 3DMark score if you do some careful planning. What I usually do is:
- Figure out the actual budget limit, which is actually 1.1 × the limit the game shows
- Replace all the parts 1 for 1 that aren't essential for the upgrade (this usually includes motherboard, CPU, CPU cooler, PSU, RAM) by purchasing them new from the store
- Calculate how much of the actual budget I have left and spend it on the best GPUs I can while remaining under budget; this usually involves making sure they are multi-GPU capable and also fit in the customer's case (the in-game comparison app is helpful for determining the best GPUs to use)
Usually I'll also note the used parts I'm pulling from the customer's rig, buy a case, and then turn around and build the exact same PC using those used parts and put it up for sale

If you’re anything like me, and trying to do this “along the way”, here’s a couple tips:
1) buy everything from PC Bay (excluding non-broken PCs). They typically give you much closer to a 1-for-1 cost to inventory value
2) BIG TIP - whenever you have an UPGRADE JOB (3DMark required), buy way more than you need. Assuming you have 4.5 stars or more, blow the customer’s budget and replace everything you can. You’ll get a 1 star rating, but they will still PAY YOU for all new parts, and you’ll be able to keep their old, unbroken parts for free, giving you a free boost to your inventory value. You get to trade a bad rating for a spark in inventory. I suggest having 4.5+ stars so you should stay above 4 afterwards. I also suggest only doing it every 2-3 upgrades to maintain a healthy star rating.

200k, taking into account the fact that if you sell you will receive 200k. Therefore, you need to have approximately more than a million in your account and spend all the money down to zero, for example, on the most expensive processor, buying it many times.

I spent more than 200k and the trophy did not appear. But having spent more than 300k then I dropped out. Just in case, buy different components. I took processors, memory sticks and video cards. Save manually more often. If you buy more than 100 or 150 pieces of something at a time. The game may freeze. Fortunately, when the saves freeze, they don’t crash/break.
