It’s super neat tech, but if I had $3,500 burning a hole in my pocket I’d be more concerned with things like rent and food.

Usually if money is burning a hole in your pocket then it means it's extra money and bills are paid. At least, that is how I've always used it and heard it used.

I would start to stock pile food myself if I had that much money free and buy a new GPU. That's like also a months rent here as well plus some utilities and a car payment.
