4. How much money did you spend on the rig as it is right now?
It’s pretty hard to calculate since I’ve been upgrading as far as I can remember, especially with the custom mod work which I can’t even think where to start with. Roughly USD$ 4000+ just for the rig (exclude peripherals and others).
5. How often do you update/buy a new rig?
I’m not sure since this is my second pc in a year and I went all out so that I don’t have to upgrade often in the future. I guess it depends on what the market has to offer.
