Im a depressed guy who can't get into vidya anymore. Just spent $1820 on a bunch of pc parts for my first build. Sitting in my room just staring at everything in boxes. I feel like fucking shit. Bought a 1080 card. 144hz monitor. i5 7500. Bought it all at microcenter. Might just fucking return it all tonorrow. I hate myself.
Here are the parts i picked all at microcenter. Might return them
Chase Reyes
not technology
Joseph Long
return it all and take a vacation to europe and fuck some nice european girls in a red light brothel
Easton Anderson
Gaming is pretty dead to me as well, after it being my only hobby for pretty much my whole life. Booted up steam and tried playing a few of my games today and only played each for like 10 minutes before deciding I just wasn't interested.
Eli Rodriguez
Yea, I would get pretty depressed if I bought shitty parts like Intel and Nvidia too.
Charles Wilson
>buy used GTX 970 >play Bloons Tower Defense 5
Nathan Watson
>im a depressed guy >posting on Sup Forums >bed is still neat and room looks clean something fishy is going on here
Dominic Hall
gib pls
Jeremiah Lewis
Maybe his mom makes him clean it.
Levi Roberts
protip girls are 25usd to fuck in frankfurt germany
Charles Hall
I have a switch and ps4 and hardly play those. Idk why I thought spending money on a nice pc would help. I don't even need a fucking pc. I can just use my friends who hardly uses it himself. Why are we like this? Gaming has been pretty much my only hobby and escape but it no longer draws me in. I miss being addicted.
Isaac Perry
if you want man amsterdam has gay prostitutes wholl fuck you its 90usd in amsterdam man or woman
Sebastian Ward
Meant for. Also here is the shirt case I regret getting
Jose Smith
I HAD $4.1K I bought the pc parts. What the fuck am I doing with my life.
Brayden Brooks
>pretty much my only hobby diversify your skills
Ryan Jenkins
Give the shit to me. I'm broke as fuck, I only have a PS3 and a 19 in CRT TV
Andrew Robinson
Play games not hardware.
Play what you want, not what you """should""" be playing.
Dominic Allen
girls are so beautiful in european brothels too the ones thatd charge 300 or more an hour in the usa
Jackson Gray
why pay when he can do it FOR FREE
Carter Adams
were too beta for that shit girl would extort us for money or yell rape
Andrew Price
Thailand is better for that. I backpacked Europe for 5 months when I was 18 and lived in Bangkok for 9 months a year and a half ago. In Thailand you can fuck a Asian qt, get drunk, have a great Thai meal and see some great old Buddhist temples in one day for about 60 USD.
Hudson Smith
just build it and queue up
Brandon Myers
Redpill me on the genital jew.
I've been told if I have sex it will change the way I look at life and allow me to become an adult. I'm 29 almost 30.
How does the brothel process work. I am assuming it is different than what you see on TV.
Luis Young
never been there but europe has like 500 usd round trip flights to thailand... back in early 2000s wish i wasnt such a pothead and traveled more
Thomas Jenkins
Also that PC cost like 100 bucks more than 3 months of my rent in Bangkok for my own one bedroom and a maid to clean it once a week.
Kevin Gonzalez
You saying I overpaid for the pc?
Matthew Cook
OrTbh its thailand, you can also fuck the maid for free every day
Logan Fisher
Return it Use the money on a gym membership or a bicycle or both Get strong, get vascular, get happy Play vidya in the future once you soft yourself out
Jeremiah Davis
>wasting all that cash to play rehashed xbox games
There is no prestige in benchmarks. Just buy an xbox and put a real OS on your beige box.
Leo Allen
Ehh idk if I like the case and the ram is only 2400mhz..shouldve got more
Grayson King
Thailand is Disney world for the early 20s man. I plan on doing another year or so there in the next year or two.
Angel Cooper
frankfurt its a neighborhood near the main train station and the windows have pink neon lights around em. theres a stairwell you ente and up to 6 flights of stairs each level has various rooms and the girls available have their doors open and you pick one to go inside she washes your dick in a sink puts a rubber on sucks you with the rubber on and you fuck til you bust a nut then leave btw dont touch the railings in the stairwell and the further up you get the more aggressive the girls
Angel Flores
You know what. This advice actually is great. I think I can't enjoy vidya because I'm unhappy with myself and the way my life is. Trying to escape and enjoy vidya won't work and will only make me feel worse. Im returning this shit tomorrow. I seriously need to work on improving my life and myself. Thank you user, seriously.
Microcenter better take all this shit back tomorrow!!!
Chase Allen
Good luck user. Seriously look into a gym membership. They're cheap. You'll feel better.
Ryan Murphy
Is it open? If not, they should just fine. They probably even will if you opened it.
Good luck with getting /fit/ senpai, remember to eat protein and lots of it. Skinless boneless chicken breast and high protein zero calorie yogurt helps.
Asher Howard
In Thailand you can go to a "BJ bar" and drink 2 dollar beers and then pick a girl and go to a room behind the bar and get your dick sucked for 15-20 bucks.
Eli Cooper
do things that aren't computer related and out of your house, or at your house if it's gardening. Fill your day with activities, play some games at night. Get friends too, if you're friendless use a site like meetup.com to find people.
Juan Price
if youre into the orient i guess i like european girls plus its highly regulate so no diseasesl
Charles Young
I have a few gyms around me. Going to either do that or buy a bike. I think getting muscles is the better option.
Cooper Cruz
go to a rock climbing gym instead of a normal one, they are more like bars with people you can sit down and chat with / make friends with. They are more like games where progression and advancement becomes addicting. Girls there are open to climb with so instead of any difficult pickup game you just ask for a partner
Daniel Barnes
The only thing I opened was the case but I put it back in the box. I'm sure they will take that back. Im glad I realize that video games just aren't going to have the same appeal they did for me all of my young life. It's time I focus on other things.
Ian Clark
They have eastern European girls just like the brothels in the Netherlands and Germany. The girls were hot in Germany and Amsterdam when I was there but if we're talking bang for your buck, Thai girls can't be beat.
Thomas Cox
I am not sure what my new hobby will be but I don't think vidya is going to work for me anymore. I only have one friend. I realllllly need to find more. I may try hanging with my friend's friends when they go out. I always so no to going out with them
Owen Sullivan
Going to bed. Thanks everyone who chatted with me tonight. I appreciate it. I feel less like shit.
I just hope microcenter let's me return all this unopened pc shit without issues.
Caleb Moore
I've thought the same about me and vidya, but I found that I can still get relatively hooked to it if I play the right game. It's a matter of luck and research, finding a game that clicks with you.
Lincoln Butler
You may find after bettering yourself, that you'll find new enjoyment in video games. Or not, I don't know. I personally still enjoy games, but people change.
Good luck.
Hudson James
Vydia is shit these days anyways
Doing media editing without any talent, ideas or drive is a waste of time for everybody, just look at jewtube celebs.
Jeremiah Roberts
What if you don't want to fund sex slavery? Are the natives receptive to your advances?
Nathaniel Ramirez
At least you have friends
Angel Wood
Read a book nigga.
Josiah Phillips
Girls in Thailand for the most part aren't "sex slaves" they are willing to fuck for money it's not a shameful thing in their country. Also all thai girls hooker or not expect something in exchange for sex like your buying them something or giving them money. And you are more likely to catch a STD from a regular Thai girls than a Thai hooker.
Brody Jenkins
1820$ on an i5 and a 1080?
Aiden Turner
i'd feel like shit too if i'd paid money for an i5
Nathan Jones
>Locked i5 Ryzen or bust
Blake Martin
I need it more
Blake Clark
That CPU is fucking shit, return it asap
Jason Hall
Woke up randomly and checked thread. What exact cpu should I have gotten instead? I'm pretty sure I'm just going to take everything back and say fuck it for the time being Maybe get a pc later. I don't need it.
Evan Nelson
Lmao this dude bought Intel in the current year.
Isaac Butler
Ryzen 7 you blithering retard
Camden Allen
OK so from what I'm getting is I should've bought Ryzen 5 1600?
Andrew Parker
Compared to the i5-7500, fuck yes.
Nathaniel Reyes
40 dollars more and you get a 1600x with better speed.
John Flores
God dammit. The build a pc guy at microcenter does that the Intel would be better for pure gaming. Why am I such an idiot to trust these guys...
Ryder Robinson
Take the shit back and complain to his manager. Anybody that recommends a locked CPU for gaming deserves to be fired.
Easton Roberts
Yeah dude. I'm not meming. Basically AMD just dropped the hottest thing in quite some time and a socket that is going to support so many chips. You really should be getting in to it. Even if you got a 1600 you could latter drop an 1800x in it or God knows what since they have hinted this socket will be around awhile.
You'll be much happier in the long run if you don't buy a bargain chip from an architecture at the end of it's life.
Thomas Walker
>microcenter >intel Of course they would, their intel stock's probably piling up because R5 > i5 and i7 is losing the battle against R7 in anything multithreaded and somewhat comparable in single threaded work.
Oliver Watson
Im taking everything back in the morning and just forgetting about building a pc anyways. I feel like a chump and I don't even need any of this shit. I'll probably build a way cheaper pc down the line when all this mining Bullshit settles down and I can find a video card for a normal price.
Connor Howard
Just take it back and say you were misinformed. Also how the fuck did you spend $1800. Take the week to shop around and price compare. Did you buy this on a Microcenter credit account or something?
Michael Rogers
60USD per day is 1800 USD a month faggot >cheap
Bentley Martin
I went to microcenter and thought Hey, let's just get everything at one place! Ya, I'm retarded when it comes to purchases. I'm going to look like a dunce coming into their store with a pile of boxes to return too.
Nathaniel Jackson
Good man. Take your time and find out what you want then wait and pull the trigger when the price is right.
It's likely an AMD/Intel or AMD Nvidia price war is about to pop off because the landscape just got really competitive.
Elijah White
Don't sweat it. You'll feel so relieved when you get in your car after.
William Sanchez
Another vote for return it and sort yourself our.
Also yeah should've gotten a ryzen 7 or ryzen 5.
Caleb Rivera
no it's gonna mke him more depressed and jumpstart a cycle of insecurity/inadequacy. He's gonna look back on that moment in 10y and realize he got memed by a bunch of autistic obese neckbeards from a user vietnamese CP board to ruin his life
tl;dr: just switch 1080>1070, i5>ryzen 1600/1700, obviously the mobo and start having fun. You'll gonna feel great once u've built your first pc
Adrian Cook
Buy a $600 road bike instead and enjoy the outdoors.
Angel Wood
You should've picked this case. Now kill yourself OP.
Brayden King
Listen to this guy for the cpu. But I'll add that cpu aside, it's a horrible time to build a pc, because ram and ssd prices have skyrocketed in the last months, and on the gpu side amd is lagging behind so there isn't a lot of competition.
Christopher Bennett
>ssd prices have skyrocketed nigga a 500mb is 140$ prices have more than halved in the last 2 years
Luis Bell
Why obviously the mobo
Jesus I just can't sleep tonight. I might call off work tomorrow. I think I will be happier if I get a pc later down the line. I really jumped the gun yesterday buying all that shit at once. I need to focus on other things in my life before I can enjoy video games again, is my theory.
Caleb Lee
but 140$ for 500MB is extremely expensive user
Chase Campbell
Yes because if you were a tourist or lived there you would fuck a hooker and pay to see temples for 30 straight days. Are you on the spectrum?
Dylan Smith
>wagie >depressed really maeks me think
Lincoln Walker
I find it kinda funny when people say they're burnt out on videogames, I just can't see it happening to me. Maybe you should try competitive genres OP, fighting games or AFPS. Fighting games are especially fun because local communities tend to be great and it's a mainstream enough genre.
Joshua Anderson
I would most certainly need a hooker most of the days yes
Henry Kelly
Build the computer
You'll feel much better about it all once its built and booted up.
Tyler Stewart
What are the saunas like there?
Jordan Jenkins
no, fuck you. Video games are not the solution, and not enjoying video games does not imply being a failure.
I find that after hanging out with friends or a hard day working, video games seem much more appealing as a fun way to relax. But "if I build a good PC and play Sup Forums approved video games then I'll be happy" is the wrong mindset, doing one thing all the time won't lead to happiness. Just look at speedrunners.
Dominic Foster
Oh yeah, that'll cure depression. Fucking some whores, for a nervous 3 second orgasm that you had to pay for. Then come home, to later find warts growing all over your dick, and hoping you didn't get the AIDS.
Got no real advice, except maybe to try to get into coding. If you take to it, it's 10x more rewarding than gaming. Though, be warned, once you start coding, you'll basically look at gaming as a child's pastime.
Isaiah James
I wouldn't build it. I realize the case is too basic. The cpu is shit. And I got ddr4 ram with only 2400mhz.
Adam Cooper
Protip Generally Thai hookers will give you their phone number and after like 2 paid fucks you can fuck them for the price of going to lunch with them(7 bucks). They all want a white man to marry them so It's kinda like having a gf but you only have to see her when you want to fuck.
Jeremiah Harris
>The build a pc guy at microcenter does that the Intel would be better for pure gaming
He's right, don't listen to the AMD shills here.
Logan Walker
>no, fuck you. Video games are not the solution, Never said they were
>and not enjoying video games does not imply being a failure. Never said it was
What's dangerous is doing something as dumb as returning ur entire 1820$ worth of parts because "depressed" subjecting oneself to abject humiliation and defeatism that's gonna hunt you for years to come instead of making the best out of it, like maximising your buck/perf and trying to focus on the positives in your life
Tyler Baker
Is that a gaming headset? Why?
Daniel Smith
Uh like a sauna. Rip zzyz.
Grayson Mitchell
>marrying a thai hooker
Dominic Foster
Decided to get that instead of speakers to block out the world. Plus my roommate as movies loudly in the living room.
Nathan Price
>subjecting oneself to abject humiliation and defeatism that's gonna hunt you for years
Not sure how to respond, but that sounds very manipulative. Nothing shameful about saving money
Grayson Lewis
Get a nice pair of headphones and a decent mic. /hpg/ is helpful if you aren't completely retarded.
Cooper Morales
You should check out Intel's retail programs. Basically intel has programs where they give retail employees discounts and such in return for completing 'education' about intel products.
They're literal paid shills for intel.
Intel currently has two processors better than ryzen: The G4360 (or whatever, the cheap pentium), and the 7700k. Every other intel processor isn't better.
