I'll be receiving $850 to build someone else a computer.

Is there any moral ambiguity in using some of that money to upgrade components in my personal computer, and passing along my used components into the new build?

Totally unethical, not ambiguous at all. Charge them a fee.

that's not morally ambiguous, it's morally fucked.

From a moral point of view, this is really fucking stupid as it is not your money to use as you wish.
From a 4chan point of view, you get yourself some nice new components and build a new computer with your spare parts.

>>51967624
fuck you

Yes.
But so long as the hardware works fine and you give a propper budget to your customer/person who you are making the computer for, you shouldn't have to feel guilty about it.
>>
>>51967624
I would give 10 - 20% off current list price for any used component. Give the customer the option of savings. If they opt for new, then you're stuck with your old hardware. Most people will go for it though.
>>
>>51967624
if you have to ask that kind of question, you're already morally corrupt. Don't do that shit man, it will come back to bite you in the ass not to mention it is just an absolute dick thing to do.

Now if you offer to sell them your old parts, that is fine. Otherwise, like many other in this thread have already said, I hope you come to regret this decision if you go through with it.


Nigger.

>>51967624
Just straight out ask your friend to let you use 50 of it to buy a TB HDD for helping
>>
>>51967702
They are also pretty dumb for just giving you a flat amount. I'm assuming the point is for you to give them the best they can buy for $850. Either give them a discount or use the savings to improve their build somewhere else.
>>
>>51967624
Same fag here.
Or use the money you would save on installing gentoo and tell him to git gud if he objects

That's called embezzlement, and is a crime.

Yeah, I'd fuck you up if I found out someone was punking me when I was paying them to do something.

Why the fuck are you ripping off your fucking customers? And do you really think they're not going to know? Kill yourself, faggot.

YES.

Also, charge them for doing it. Use THAT money.
>>
>>51967624
Fucking kikes I swear to god they need to be gassed.
>>
>>51967624
That is just stealing money. Charge them a fee instead if you want upgrades you piece of shit.

I came here to post this.

You should be compensated for your time, use the profits to buy new parts. Alternatively, you could be honest with the guy and say "I have a spare X, would you want it for $X?"

If you aren't honest, it'll bite you in the ass when that component fails and he thinks you built a shit system.

In any case, you know what you're doing is wrong, otherwise you wouldn't have come here to try and justify it.
