4. How much money did you spend on the rig as it is right now?
Probably around £2000, but that's over a few years. My trusty 2600k is 3 years old for example and moved from a previous build.
5. How often do you update/buy a new rig?
Not as much as I used to. I probably buy something for the rig every 18 months. Usually a GPU. My CPU's seem to last a lot longer these days.
