If you can afford a USD$3500 headset and live in HK, you are already wealthy and have a large apartment. Avg income here is around $2000/mo.

Or 365 Personal with 1TB Onedrive, 50GB mailbox. If you want to add a custom domain you need to buy one at GoDaddy (yuck!)

4GB ram is not enough for a good 1080p gaming card. You'd most likely only be able to play esport titles on the 6500 XT. I went from a 3GB 1060 to a 6GB 5600 XT and it makes the extra frame buffer makes a massive difference as new games are getting very demanding to run, even on 1080p.
