Desktop and Moving to China

[KyleF01]

Title says it all.

I will be moving to China (Chengdu) at the end of August for at least a year but really aiming for 2-3 years.

I plan on bringing my desktop and at least one monitor.

Does anyone have any tips on traveling with a PC? I think my only option is to take everything out of it, pack securely in my carry on and then buy a new case when I get there.

Is there anything I should know? Does anyone know anything in particular about China and PCs? I will be living at a university teaching English for the first year. Can I rely on decent internet? Or should I just download my entire Steam library while I'm here?

Anything else I should prepare before going there? VPN, different power plugs, etc?

I'm really hoping I can still enjoy gaming while I'm there...

Thank you,

I'd probably just take the major components: CPU, GPU, RAM, SSD. Everything else you can buy there. I'd be too worried about shipping my monitor that far and the whole build case/parts would be heavy.
