How much does Planetside 2 really cost you?

[Gin]

Sure, Planetside 2 is a Free-to-play game. Sure, you can spend money on items in the future cash shop to deck out your character.

But... how much money have you all spent upgrading or completely rebuilding your systems? Are you lucky enough to already have a nice rig that will run the game?

I am personally struggling to decide if I want to spend the money to build a new computer that is capable of running Planetside 2. For the record, I built my current computer in the summer of 2005. My specs are an AMD Athlon FX-57, a 9800 GTX+, 4 Gigs of Corsair XMS PC3200 memory, and a 300GB Raptor. If that's not an old rig, I don't know what is.

I'm willing to bet at least 40% of the Planetside player-base has spent at least $100 or more tweaking/upgrading/completely rebuilding their computers to be able to play Planetside 2.

So, how much have you spent on Planetside 2?
