OK /g/, I want to get a 980ti but I'm a broke college student practically living paycheck.

I plan on only using money from doing odd shit like giving blood and stuff like that.

Which 980ti should I get and what weird or odd jobs should I do to earn money for it?

You have a bad attitude. There's your first problem. Start being more pragmatic, and you'll stop being poor.
>>
>I'm a poor college student
>WAHHHHH I WANT A $600 GPU AND MOM SAID NO.
>WAHHHH

You're what's wrong with this planet.
You're a college student, you have other priorities, and clearly such a little amount of money to where you must even consider selling your own blood.

Focus on your studies, focus on actually having money to eat. Not spending it on something you will hardly ever have time to use.

spend your money on a seminar from life coach over here >>53658566

wont make you rich but he'll teach you how to be a proper asshole.

Live within your means, asshole.

i was in the same situation like you.
u just gotta use your freetime to learn something. i learned photoshop and after some years got really good at it.
i then tried steam workshop and i got some of my pieces fucking accepted. i basically get a three-digit number every month for some skins.

just find something youre really good at and charge people for it, its that simple

then focus on finding a good job

then focus on your children
then snap because you're old and never took time to do something for yourself
then kill your entire family with an axe and kill yourself

Well first of all, wait a few months to either buy Pascal/Polaris, or wait for them to come out and for the 980ti to lose a ton of value.

Also, giving blood? Dude are you fucking ok? I like gaymen too so I'm not putting you down for that but damn, you should watch the fuck out, that seems like an intense addiction.
>>
You could steal.

Lol amd fag

Nobody realising he's already got a way of saving up, yet you are incompetent enough to not be able to read the second line; any argument to the point of where he pondered about any extra possible work, this is likely to boost the money to get it sooner.

What 980ti should he get?

I haven't looked it up but I usually go for Asus with my gpus.
>>
>>53658688
>giving blood is an extreme thing to do

it's actually harmless and a good way to earn some extra cash. a 980ti might not be the best place to spend it on but theres generally nothing wrong with giving blood. you'll be thankful for it when you end up in the hospital and need it.
>>
is this seriously how self-entitled modern students are?
>I want this $600 gpu but I don't have the money to buy it
either acquire the money to buy it(e.g. get a better job), or settle for something within your budget
and, quite honestly, if you're really living paycheck-to-paycheck, building a gaming pc should be your last priority

I-i donation my blood. Are mericunts so selfish that they really need to pay people?

>>53658483
Use part of your student loan monies for GPU. Or just buy something you can afford like a 960 or something. Or concentrate on your studies and quit wasting your time on gaymes.

>>53659125
They don't pay for blood over here, they pay for plasma. It's a long drawn out process that is different than donating just blood. But stay ignorant and prejudiced, it makes you look ignorant and is expected for yurotrash.
>>
>>53659202
I suppose you can help your fellow comrade with some money for his GPU then.
>>
>>53658612
If I was living with my mother and not paying for my own college your comments would make sense.

Please forgive me for wanting to have fun in my free time.
>>
>>53659230
Yes as a b+ blood type, I donate plasma rather than whole blood. They hook you up to a plasmapheresis machine and the process takes around 40 minutes. Stay arrogant and pig headed mericunt. It must feel great to know that your countrymen care so little for each other that they cant take 40 minutes out of one month to donate.
>>

OP here, I would be down for that but I don't accept handouts.

>paying for my own college
With loans I'm sure. Fuck your 980ti. If you were actually paying for school and you're as poor as you claim you'd know how painful it is to part with your money for stupid shit like graphics cards.
>>
>>53659342
How is paying for uni with loads any less valid?
>>
The fucked up thing is even having to pay for college. I'm an American and I admit things over here are kind fucked up at the moment.
>>
Do you not get a student allowance in your country? I get $150 a week for free (not a loan) and just saved up for a few weeks and bought a 970

So donĀ“t buy it,you fucking nerd.

checks out.

>>53659372
Because paying with loans is like paying with fake money. You have no concept of the debt you're actually incurring until the bills start coming in years later when you have an actual job. Paying your own way through school does not equate to signing up for a shit-ton of loans you have to pay later. Pretty fucking obvious, m8. You haven't paid for shit yet.

>>53659406
If a college education was free the degrees would be worth even less than they are over here. Free college doesn't solve anything. Bachelor's degrees are already basically worthless, no need to devalue them any more.

Start acting like a millenial and get a low wage job and live with your parents. The government will help you out

So you wont be getting a home loan?

>>53658483
You should do gay porn and use the money you earn taking it up the ass to get an education that will prevent you from having to take it up the ass for the rest of your professional life.

Either way, you're fucked. Best kill yourself.

Really? Free college?

Fuck all these projecting niggers in here, but now really isn't the time to get a 980it bruv.

I got a 970 that will last until 4k 120fps isn't a meme anymore.
>>
>>53659988
Different ballgame. Mortgages are given out based on income and credit risk. You generally can't borrow more than you'll be able to pay back unless the real estate market crashes. Student loans are a joke. Anybody with a pulse can get themselves in deep over their heads in debt.

>>53660583
Student loads would be the smart thing to do, in my opinion. You would be much better of taking a loan than trying to study and work 40 hours a week. Just becase some people take shitty majors that wil never earn them enough to pay their loads, doesn't discount the effectiveness of a load for someone studing engineering or medicine.
>>
>>53658483
fuck ass these assholes.
if you want a 980TI that's awesome.

seems to me like you want to earn it and not loan for it or whatever so go for it.

however if you dont need it right now (i need one before april 5th because of VR)
i would definitely wait until pascal/polaris comes out.

It's only a few more months and the 980 wil drop in price and maybe the new generation cards will be cheaper with same performance
>>
>>53660835
fuck these assholes*

last time I tried giving blood I went into a coma for a week

I want to get the evga 980ti hybrid

Why is selling blood such a problem?

Its not like you need the blood you give, you get paid for it, and it helps people.

Yeah that's totally ludicrous.
>>
>>53659312
A lot of us pay for our medical, we aren't all socialist poor fags, so we get money when we give, and the hospital gets money from clients, it's all about cash flow.

when i sold my blood i bought weed and alcohol with the money
