It's been thru a lot but I guess it's time to move on... Figure I'll just start from scratch. Haven't been paying attention for a long while so what's the story? Budget is around 20k... So what should I get?... Full parts list is preferable... Thx...

He's lying. He hasn't posted an anything other than his phone in years, hence all the auto-correct issues. Geoff's too poor to own a PC.

Can you even buy a PC worth $20k? Pretty sure after about $3k you're well into diminishing returns anyway.

I know last time we upgraded our servers at work a couple of years back we spent ~£100k/~$150k (Hyper-V server and mirrored hotswap) and I bet they won't even run Crysis :owned:.

Geoff needs to get his old assembly line job at Dell back before he can afford to get a new computer with employee pricing.

Geoff, you tell lies on the internet in an attempt to escape a mundane, boring life lacking in any and all forms of adult stimulus.

Just thought you should know.

People with high wealth don't bother investigating shit like broken computers, they just shrug their shoulders and order a new one. The fact that yours remained in your house long enough to figure out that it was something as obscure as a shorted port indicates just how unlikely a new computer was :olo:

Scrambling to fix the problem because you couldn't afford to buy your poor boy another computer. :olo:

The poor fucker even had to figure out and fix the problem himself :olo:

Father of the year :olo:

You've been claiming you're rich for years, when the reality is that you're just non-contributing dead weight in a one working parent family on a reasonable income who own a home in a cheap part of Texas :olo:

You claim a high income, yet can post absolutely no proof of any of the common trappings from that bracket :olo:

Even your shit pool build is a budget above-ground job :olo:

You're a useless ageing deadbeat with an ego that can't reconcile the fact that you live off someone else's coin. Hence why you come on here claiming to be "retired".

You useless, smelly, junkie looking cunt - you're a complete failure on every level. You couldn't even retire properly, because your man-of-the-house-wife wouldn't let you :olo:

You useless unkempt fucking pikey :olo:

Never claimed to be rich...
We could sell this house right now for 700k...
The pool cost $100k+...
All the rest is a bunch of retarded babbling of a poor wannabe me fatty narcissist with a bastard kid and a brick wall view... :olo: ...
