Calculating Current 2X Points Promo + 2X Rate + 80% Aspire Bonus

I'm new to hilton. I just got the amex Silver Card and may upgrade to Gold. anyone know how the following will be calculated.

Registered for the double points promo
My hotel say is at the 2X Rate
Possibly 8X bonus from Aspire.

How many points will be on a $1,400 total spend stay ?

Let's say that $1200 is the hotel rate, and $200 are taxes.

12000 Base points (1200 * 10)
12000 bonus points for the 2x rate (1200 * 10)
12000 bonus points for the double points promo (1200 * 10)
9600 bonus points for Gold status (with Ascend) (1200 * 8)
16800 bonus points from Ascend credit card spend (1400 * 12)

62400 total points

With Aspire, you would have Diamond status so an extra
2400 bonus points for Diamond status (with Aspire) (10 points per dollar instead of 8)
2800 bonus points from Aspire credit card spend (14 instead of 12)

So a total of 67600 points.

On what card?

The following would be the thread about AF waivers or other retention bonuses (no matter which Amex card you have):
