No GTX 1080 SC2 still. So sad they took off the bundle days before I was going to buy it. And I missed all the stock up today because I was at work (ironically trying to save up for my build).
Starting to lose hope. Dreamed of a PC setup since 2013 (and when I say dreamed, I literally would day dream and make a setup with my mind picturing my room with dual monitors). As I grew closer and closer to that goal, my parents said if I got a job senior year I could get me a $2500 setup when i have the money. Then they surprised me saying they could help pay for it.
2014 I gamed on my Lenovo Y560P IdeaPad, with an i7 720QM and GT240M. I still do to this day, but only play CSGO because that’s all it can {barely} handle. The GPU rises to 105°C and shuts down on other games, even after I cleaned it.
2015 I bought an Xbox, and up till 2017 became obsessed with Overwatch. As I watched professional streams, my goal became more clear: a gaming PC that keeps high FPS maxing out all those Triple A games and competitive games with a 144hz monitor.
It’s sad. It truley is. I’m surrounded by peers who don’t know or respect technology, but they have dual 1080 Ti SLI’s their parents bought them. They don’t even use it and just try to fit in. They don’t respect technology.
Then there’s me. I admire technology and its origination, and started coding at the age of 12. I started server management and MySQL development, C# projects, you name it. I get a job to save up for my dream GTX 1080 and i7 8700K but as soon as I get the cash a mysterious price rise happens.
Somehow I feel like all this BTC mining stuff is somehow my fault. Call me crazy, but I feel like my luck is so bad that somehow the planets aligned so right when I had the dream setup I’ve pictures for half a decade contained and researched to the fullest inside of a PCPartPicker, the prices just linearly rise up.
I start college after Summer, and then i’m off to the real world. I wish I got a PC sooner. After college comes wife (if I meet someone). Then i’m working all day and will never fill this void I wanted to because i’ll have no time. I wish I had a gaming PC during my childhood. All you people complaining about being stuck with your R9 whatever should stop. You guys can game. My laptop overheats from damn Club Penguin, and that’s not a joke (I can provide benchmarks if necessary). It drains battery where it literally says “100% - 4 Minutes Remaining”. The hard drive is basically on its last cycle, with 10 minute bootup times. I know all of this is fixable, but I don’t want to put any more money into that 2009 laptop.
Sorry for ranting. I don’t have many close friends and just had to let it out. I know most of you probably didn’t even read down to here, but I just had to let it out. I can’t contain this... frustration? sadness? apathy..? I don’t know how to describe how I feel.
Time to curl up in bed and just cry. I wish I could say i’m joking, but when your dreams get crushed like that after you have done so much research and hard work at fast food, getting yelled at left and right, you start to lose hope and just go downhill.
Thank you guys, for giving me a sense of comfort and giving me somewhere to let it out.
