Hey there!
I'm currently trying to raise money for a new computer. I have a Gofundme up and running here. I am anticipating that I won't be able to raise all the money through Gofundme alone so I'm trying to plan a dakimakura (waifu pillow) design and hold an auction to raise funds. I've already posed a question on my tumblr but I'll go ahead and copy/paste it here:
If I were to do a dakimakura, or wall scroll, what would you guys be interested in? My personal characters or maybe something fanmade?
I’m asking because I’m currently trying to save for a new PC build because my current one is slowly dying. I’ve set up a gofundme but I have my doubts I’ll be able to reach my goal through that alone so I’m trying to think of other ways I could raise the money. I’ve been wanting to do a daki for a while but I was never really sure what to do since it’d be my first one lol.
Anyways, feedback is welcome!
Also, as a reminder, I do have a Redbubble ( http://www.redbubble.com/people/hippobutt ) and Gumroad ( https://gumroad.com/revadiehard )
Thanks for reading! Shares are always greatly appreciated :>

Rx480 -$200
Gtx 970 -$300
Another thing I'd recommend is looking on Newegg for cases, they have rebates and you can usually score a deal at times plus the reviews are a bonus cause not every case is equal and usually have issues.
Also you should add a ssd and put your os on it for faster start times and all your art programs for faster loading and rendering. $30-40 for a 120gb is big enough since that'll be it's main purpose. The 2tb HDD will be main storage.
Also do you really need a DVD drive? If you have one already in your pc just salvage it and reuse it. You can always download all the drivers via internet or USB
Also you're forgetting the Os :v that's 90-100$
If ya got any questions just ask, be happy to help.
Btw download the newegg app, they have daily deals and all that jazz, super easy to navigate.
The case listed is the Newegg price.
I have a SSD in my current build as well as another HD. Both are going towards the new build.
Yes, my current rig doesn't have a DVD drive.
My OS is already purchased.
Thank you for the advice. I'm sure the prices will go down for the video cards after the new 1060 comes out.
Only difference with the 1060 is it's a little faster then a 980 but consumes less power and would cost around $200-250 depending on what version you get..
Up to you on what you want, nvida or Amd
Also I'd recommend a different case, reviews for it are pretty mixed on it, HDD bays are non removable so you get lousy air flow, maybe your GPU is to long so it won't fit or to tall it hits the panel door. USB connectors are placed oddly and very inconvenient if it's on your desk plus you'd have to re arrange the wires since they placed them oddly when they assembled it. Won't fit certain water cooling radiators.it has a front panel door for.. front dust filter is non removable..
Frankly I'd recommend a better brand like corsair or something even diypc are good cases. Doesn't hurt also looking for a dual compartment case since they give your pc a cleaner look and separate the psu heat from the actual hardware compartment.
Really check newegg out, theyre the only ones to have the best deals available on their app on smartphones. Plus you don't have to pay any tax on anything (depending on where you live, only 3 states tax)
Also Amd is actually coming out with their new Zen series FX Processors this October including their new socket am4 , comparable to intel i7.
But I heard they're gonna cost the same as intel since Amd stated ' they're getting out of being the budget company and more performance'.. which is gonna be lousy and good at the same time.
Up to you if ya wanna wait for it to see or just go with intel
I've always been partial to purchasing original works from artists, same goes for work for their original characters. ^^
If you aren't looking for a super powerful GPU, I have a used Radeon 7950 that has served me very well the last couple years, and I would still be happy with it if VR wasn't so GPU intensive to force me to upgrade. It runs 60 fps on most modern AAA games on high settings. I was planning on sticking it on Ebay or Craigslist.
But before I do that I've been asking people I know if they are interested in buying it at a discount, unfortunately everyone I know either has no need for a more powerful GPU or already has a gaming GPU. Since you replied to me that makes us practically family so I will offer you the same discount at $120 (after shipping).
Specifically, it is this card: https://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Rad...../dp/B0098HW1HG
Let me know if you are interested.
