Loan Arrangement for Credits
Hey there! Title of the thread is pretty self-explanatory. My computer died almost a month ago, and I've been pricing up a build to not only replace it, but to get something ridiculously nice. I'm a third of the way there, yay! However, I want to order it now, rather than waiting another two months. I don't have am abundance of cash, but I -do- have an abundance of credits, so I figured I'd give this a shot.
Proposal -
I secure a loan from someone for $2k USD, via PayPal or other service with protection above and beyond handing physical cash to someone and to ensure that there's an incorruptible record of the exchange. As an incentive, I immediately transfer over 2500cr (negotiable) to be kept permanently, not as a sale of credits but as a gift or "thank you" separate from the transaction. This money would be paid back at the rate of $400 every two weeks beginning on September 14th, until the balance is settled.
I know it's a longshot, but I figured someone might have expendable income to tie up temporarily and wouldn't mind receiving ~$750 worth of credits for their trouble. I also want to stress that even though my rig was essentially my sole source of entertainment that this is a want not a need, so it isn't as if I'd go homeless without it, only a little stir crazy on my days off of work. I could also see halving this offer and working with two people, but probably not more than that so as not to overcomplicate matters. Feel free to hit me up with a forum message or connect on Discord if you're interested. If not, no hard feelings, just exploring options to get my current dream build completed sooner rather than later!

I don't understand these priorities.

ewww, just thinking about that makes me not want the pc...

The WD Black 1TB NVME drive that I picked for my primary boot was a selection not for the read/write speed over a cheaper SSD, but drive longevity - the larger the drive capacity is, the longer the write life of the drive is. The one I chose is rated for up to 600TB of writes, which means that you could write 50GB per day to the drive and not have its write capacity used up for 33 years. Given that my use for the machine will have that at significantly less, it virtually eliminates a potential point of failure with the drive, as I'm sure it will outlive everything else in the system.
But no man I just bought this shit because of the pricetag, who does research lmao
Disclaimer - the case I bought is going to light up like Vegas on Christmas, so I guess there is a portion of the cost of this build that has absolutely zero effect on performance, but I've cheaped out on every other case I've ever purchased and wanted to go a little wild. All six fan slots are taken up by RGB fans, and I'm installing an LED strip as well.

You also make me want to upgrade! *grab money*
