I can't tell if Windows has gotten screwed up or if this is the GPU threatening to riot, either way, if my desktop goes, I'm screwed. My desktop computer is Quite Old, I've known for awhile he needs a wholesale replacement, but I haven't been able to afford it - we're barely making ends meet month to month as it is.

I would love to open commissions to be able to pull together the money to buy a new computer, but every time I've tried, it's been like pissing in the wind (which is why I'm still using a ten year old desktop computer as my main workhorse in the first place) - I get maybe fifty bucks and then nothing and then something else breaks and the money has to go to that instead of saving. I'm so stressed out about this now that I can't even focus to try to research the best alternative to the gaming rig I'd been intending to build to replace him - at this stage, I will sacrifice gaming if it means I have a computer that will still let me do graphic design work, but I don't even know where to look and also did I mention stressed to death?

The pandemic exhausted my cope months ago. I'm not even expecting anything from this, I just needed to get it out,
