My parents paid for a really good PC back before I dropped out of university - I was studying architecture, and said I need one for the 3D renders and whatnot.

It was in 2008, and it would still be good for most things today, if I didn't make a single, small mistake - I bought a 2 GPU Nvidia card.

The month after my warranty ended(I didn't get extended one like the moron I am, only 2 years) it got fried. No wonder, it was running at around 100 degrees Celsius since day one, but I still hoped it wouldn't happen.

Since by that time I was long out of university, and also finished my short and painful adventure with having a job, I scrambled what money I could find and got a $20 replacement just so my PC would run.

I'm using it to this day.

I could save up for something better by now, but I think of it as sort of divine punishment for being such a failure. I don't deserve a better PC.
