Posted July 23, 2018 Hurting yourself just to get what you want looks so silly to me, so my answer is no. Even if you're paying my medical bill, I won't. Eventually better hardware will come anyway. I fractured my left big toe joint when I was in high school and it took me around 1-2 months to heal, just a fracture, it wasn't broken and it was already painful as hell to live with it.

Posted July 23, 2018 No offense but this is probably the dumbest question I’ve ever heard.

Posted July 23, 2018 No PC-hardware is important enough for me to go and deliberately break a single bone, finger or otherwise. Hell, I can't think of any physical object worth of doing that in the first place, PC-hardware or otherwise! Hand, n. A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody’s pocket.

Posted July 23, 2018 If you asked me from 4-6 years ago, probably yea. Me with money now says nothing about that sounds worth hurting a finger for, especially since it significantly risks my ability to play video games anyway. if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

I've snapped my left arm clean in half, but interestingly, it was painful only until the bones were pulled back into place and cast had been set. Trying to type anything on a keyboard with a massive cast on your arm, though, was a pain in the arse! Hand, n.

Posted July 23, 2018 Sure. I accidentally cut my finger in half and all I got was bloody carrots. This is a big step up. I'd do it for $200 let along a 1180Ti. [EDIT] I'd go as low as $20 tbh. It's $20 for a few seconds work. Maybe even $10.

Posted July 23, 2018 Just now, VegetableStu said: my primary school education used to have classmates with questions like these. I think I went something to the lines of "yes but I like my fingers more" some others weren't too hot on it and just said it/they was stupid, lol ._. Not to offend anyone but this seems like a question a younger person without money would ask. The card is only like 1,000 dollars and you don’t even need it. I wouldn’t break my finger for a Lamborghini. Yeah it’s like a million dollars but I don’t want to have a broken finger, worry about it getting stolen nor pay for the preposterous amount of gas the car will use.

Posted July 23, 2018 Hell no, for a few reasons. One, the card doesn't exist, so you'd get literally nothing. Two, even if it did exist, I don't need an upgrade. Three, I value my fingers over a fucking video card. Four, knowing my luck, it would leak all over my system and kill literally everything. Quote me to see my reply!
