So yeah, my laptop is dying. Has been for a while know. Constant freezes, many of the keys on the laptop itself no longer work, headphone and microphone jacks are failing, and more and more often the wifi card is acting up meaning that it too will soon fail. So art and commissions have slowed because of these persistant problems. Even with a seperate keyboard and having it hardwired to the router for internet, it still acts up with occasional freezes and failing ports.
So, any funds i get from commissions from now on will be going towards funding for a new computer. However, so not to overload myself again (as i have done now with too many i currently owe) I will only have one slot open at a time. No more than that. I have too many i owe, and too slow of an artist.
So yeah. Laptop is dying, any money I make will go towards a new computer, and only 1 commission at a time when the current ones I owe are finished.
Pretty much all of the updates I have this time.

I build and repair desktops in my spare time as a hobby. For example this Dell Dimension E520 is one that I got at a thrift store for 20 dollars, and aside from all the dust It had in it, all it needs is a Core 2 Quad Q6600 as a decent upgrade, a better GPU and maybe some more ram and an SSD. It wont handle Crysis too well, but it at least should handle Second Life on medium settings with those upgrades along with artwork/ media
If you have room for a desktop I could give you an estimate for the upgrades and shipping via UPS
I would need a custom build desktop computer for my projects and work. Again, I do appreciate the offer though. Thanks.
its just...depending on the specs they can be quite expensive
I recently rebuilt a Dell XPS 630i with a new MSI 970A SLI Krait Edition motherboard, an AMD FX 4350 Quad Core (for now) 8GB of Corsair gaming memory, a 240GB SSD by OWC and a MSI AMD R7-250 (for now).
It is my main gaming desktop that I use
