>>58764059
This is my main PC

I make over $100k/yr so not poor, but until just 2.5 years ago I was still running a c2d. Replaced it with like a $400 build with a low watt i5 and a mini itx case. Eventually I did want to game so I threw in a gtx 970 I kept from my old job. I don't ever see the point in spending $1500 on a rig when I can buy 2-3 year old tech for 1/3 the price that'll still last me 5-8 years.

That power consumption though. I had a dual quad core 3ghz Xeon rig, core2duo era xeons. I took it home from work only to discover it used 500W at idle and raised the temp in my room by like 5-10 degrees. Took it back to work and threw it in the junk pile.

This kid has a better rig than you what's your excuse

The good thing about us poorfags is that now that technology advances like shit at slow pace if we collect some money you can buy something that lasts nearly forever. I got an i7-4790K (albeit not very cheap but for me it was a big investment) and now it seems to last forever. I got an R9 290 at a relatively good price and it still seems fucking amazing at 1080p.

And since 99% of what I have to watch at any given moment is 1080p I find the idea of upgrading retarded. It would be even distorted by upscaling.

>budget
if i had excess money to budget i would. its kinda hard when i only make 2k a month and $700 goes straight to rent alone. $700 is the cheapest in the outskirts of the ghetto here. i can't go any lower unless i move into the projects where i would be shot for being white.

$700 for rent
$200 for gas (the extra increase in rent for apartments closer to work are far more than $200)
$70 - $110 a month depending on the season for electricity since water is only included in rent
$140 for car insurance
$270 for car payment
$70 for cell phone
$80 for internet
$90 for obamacare since i'm forced to and employer got rid of health insurance for hourly based wages

>i can't get any cheaper rent
>i can't get any cheaper gas
>i can't get any cheaper electricity
>i might be able to shave $20 off car insurance
>i might be able to get $10 off cell phone
>i can't get any cheaper in internet

so right there i'm left with about $300 for everything else. so please explain to me how i can "budget better?"

It's a smart move when you're fucking poor

Poor fag who has recieved help from friends.

Original pc was from 2007(C2D e7400(?) & 6(2x2+2x1) gb ddr2) in a insprion case. Hard drive is dying on me since 5 months ago don't bother turning on.

Received the same case but with 2x1 gb ram and a slower processor.

Got another which is my main pc because of form factor of the case.
Optiplex 740 with 4 gb ram and I want to say c2d 320 gb

And I also received a thinkpad x131e (chromebook model) with celeron and 4 gb running win 7.

The inspirons are taking up space and would like to sell them or scrap them to make some money.

Not sure where to go in Miami, could be a pawn shop?

How many kilometers do you have to commute everyday? If you make less than 100km per work day you are being chucked

Also you are spending 600+$ on the car only, have you ever considered public transport?

$70 for a monthly cellphone plan is a scam and the same is for internet, how about using the phone modem instead off land internet?

I used to be a student aswell, study hard, get a good job, and then you can finaly build that pc you dreamed off.

The jump from student to a decent salary is most likely the largest income jump you will see in your entire life, and the great thing is, it happens when you are still young and don't have kids you have to spend that money on etc.

Even though I could easily deck out my pc with the latest and greatest I opted to go for used high end parts, since I like getting good value/money.

I'm content with my computer, it does everything that I need a computer to do and more than capable of playing all the games that I want to play.

But man, if my wallet were exploding with disposable income I would fucking love to have a new motherboard multiple M.2 slots. Make all of my computer's storage M.2 ssd's and disregard sata storage altogether. Then I'd buy a modular power supply (the ones where you can detach power cables that are unused) and have the cleanest inside of a computer that you've ever seen. I wouldn't even have to perform cable management for a clean looking setup, just because there would be so few cables in use.

I can say I like something because I've tried the alternatives/the opposite. I like pizza, because I compare it to other foods.

If the only food I know was the spaghetti, I wouldn't say that I like spaghetti. Or maybe, if I said that, I would have said because spaghetti makes me feel better when I'm hungry. So I like eating spaghetti, as opposed to be hungry.

I mean, how can you say that you like life, comparing it to something that you haven't tried, or don't know anything about?

My x201 meets basically all my needs with an old i5, 4gb ram, and 160gb harddrive running devuan. It browses the web, streams anime/manga, runs ruby and c programs, and even ran older Vidya when I had Ubuntu on it(don't want to put steam on it with devuan, keeping it bretty free right now).
