4. How much money did you spend on the rig as it is right now?

I bought the parts before the pandemic, thus avoiding the 10-20% price increase due to the weak Norwegian currency at the moment. Anyhow it amounted to around 2400-2600$ in total, excluding the monitor that is reused from an older system (ASUS ProArt PA27Q9)

5. How often do you update/buy a new rig?

Around every 5-6 years. The latest builds have been for my family, but I've recently built myself a new rig as my main machine (awaiting publication).
