What those armor ratings mean:

8200 = Absorb 56.58% of damage

7000 = Absorb 52.50% of damage

6000 = Absorb 48.00% of damage

5000 = Absorb 42.50% of damage

No need to bother with caps or layers as you can see. ~4% absorbtion is negligible, figure on a hit of 1000 damage thats a whopping 40 hitpoints of difference.

But if maxing your armor and damage gives you that peace of mind you need to be comfortable in combat, then go with it. :)
