Ugh, help...

My motherboard doesn't support up above 95w, or 6 cores.

 

A Phenom II X4 will still work if you're willing to tweak it (lower clockspeed a bit, then lower voltage and stress test).

 

I am proposing a solution to your problem. If you want to accept it, please do. If you don't, I won't pity you, I'll just leave.

Well help me understand the situation? Please. What could I possibly be missing?

......I'll just be quiet from now on to you just because you're starting to really get on my nerves, despite having good advice, you're not too helpful at the moment...

God forbid I get on your nerves. It just blows my mind that people don't have the drive and dedication to work towards what they want, and they make pitiful excuses saying "it's the generation" and "well nobody else did" and blame all their problem on other people. It makes you look weak, lazy, and pathetic.

You should talk to your parents about this. It should make them happy to know that you've accepted your situation and are trying to find a solution.

 

And then, since you've done your research, I bet you'll have no problem figuring out how to undervolt that CPU (make sure your motherboard BIOS can do it).

 

And there's always the option of mowing lawns.

Don't get exasperated, we were all like that once

Then leave this topic if you're not going to help and all you're going to do is complain, at least someone else is trying help.

I do that in the summer...  Its actually kinda fun..   My motherboard is a Dell OEM one... can't undervolt sadly..

What can it do? Can it disable cores, lower clockspeeds?

 

And maybe think about a way to make money in the winter too You might not be able to do this, but this winter I will make and sell a lot of craft beer, for instance.

Also, when I installed my Athlon II X4, I had to swap it out with the exact copy I got from my aunt, who gave me it as a joke..  It turned out I needed to swap motherboards, which I thought was weird, are you sure this wouldn't happen again?

I mean we've all been there, but most of us here were brought up in a fashion to be greatful for what they have, and try to solve their problems. There's people who haven't had shit, and work for what they want. Like sure there were times where I wanted more than I was going to get, but I never said my parents screwed me, and messed everything up, because I've been there where my parents didn't have shit to give.

 

I just feel if you want something, come here seeking advice on how to get it. Not complaining about Mom and Dad and saying you're too lazy to go get money, and then saying "it's the generation". Drives me up the wall.

Well I can gladly say this one has been resolved, if that helps your nerves

Listen, I am in fact very thankful, and considering my step sister is most likely getting a PC for Christmas... it ticks me off..

Man, I did try to help. I told you to go save some money and get it. But you literally said you're too lazy to do that. So I feel my complaint is valid.

Get on your nerves? You have the mindset that you are entitled to something, you think you deserve something for doing anything that you think is remotely hard.

If anything, your mindset gets onto my nerves because of how ridiculous it is. 

 

The ONLY thing you are entitled to from your parents is a roof over your head and food on the table.

Heck, be even happy you have a damn machine to play with, when I was growing up, I was banned from almost any form of entertainment in the house.

He is helping, by pointing out your flaws. You just can't see it that way.

I pointed out that I am in fact thankful for those type of things... I see it with my mom in her old apartment, the fact that I had to be thankful for each and every meal.... keep in mind, things have gotten better when she got married but still..

No I totally get that. But you can at least try. Like shoveling, cleaning cars. I know a lot of paper companies that will let you deliver flyers and such on the weekend.

But you're not thankful. You're just saying that to get people off your back. You're actually very unhappy about it. And that's the way things go man.

 

My parents bought my sister a car. Did they ever buy me a car? Nope.

They bought my sister a phone. Did they ever buy me a phone? Nope.

 

So what did I do? Saved money and bought a brand new car, and a nice phone. It's the way she goes.

 

And now you're just trying to justify your point of being upset about your parents not giving you what you want. What your sister is getting is completely irreverent. The point I'm making is you're too lazy to work for what you want, and you're just trying to find a cheap easy alternative. Life isn't always cheap and easy.

REMEMBER, I WAS MAD AT THE START OF THIS TOPIC. That's the last time I'm saying that, I cool off quickly.

That doesn't take away from the part that you're being an entitled prick and trying to justify not working for what you want.

[AceTaker]

I know Celeron performance is low, but the G1840 just might be good since I already have DDR3 RAM.... using collected money I could get a Case and power supply at Micro Center, the and the Celeron and G1840 on amazon... It offer's upgradability which is perfect since I will be upgrading over the summer if all goes well.

What? I'm not saying it again, but that makes no sense... working is something I COULD do. Now one more time, GET OFF THE TOPIC IF YOUR JUST GOING TO ARGUE. It's not that helpful saying the same things over and over.

Let me clarify, he is helping, you're just rejecting the idea of you potentially being what he is saying. AKA you're in denial. 

Nonetheless, you can't tell us what to do, this is the internet

And, yes it is helpful saying the same thing over and over again, it just depends on what the statement is.
