So today marks the day of a new year. Happy new year to everyone and welcome to 2019 =^.^=. This means tomorrow it's back to work for me. No more holidays.
With that said, I have some good news. Commissions are now open. It's been quite some time since I last had opened commissions publicly. So if you are interested there are currently 3 slots available. Would have been 5 but two is already taken.
You can fill out the form here.

One of the main reasons I am opening commissions at this point is because I am looking to buy some new hardware for my computer. There has been an issue I have had for quite a while that I just sort of ignored and I am thinking I should get to fixing it before it's too late. Occasionally my computer will not post. I can turn it on, and nothing. Lights come on, fans blow, but nothing. Now in normal circumstances you can just remove parts one by one till the computer comes on to identify what the problem is. The issue is, the computer works with all the hardware.
After a bit of turning it off and back on, it eventually posts which leads me to believe the problem can only be the motherboard or power supply because if it was any of the other components it wouldn't post unless that problem component was removed.
So what do I replace? Well, there is a much higher probability that it's the motherboard. But that would mean essentially replacing my entire computer, and that's not cheap. But it's what I am going to do because it's really my only option. All new hardware and it shouldn't be something I have to worry about again for at least 5 - 10 years. My current computer is 7 - 8 years old. It's running on a AMD A8-3870k APU, a first generation APU from AMD.
There might be some people who are interested in my thoughts for a new computer build so here it goes. I feel these are the main important components as all the other stuff is subject to change based on price and such at the time.
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 - 6 cores 12 threads - 3.4GHz (3.9GHz Turbo)
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 570
RAM: 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR4 2800MHz
This is more on the higher spec end. I could go with something less such as an AMD Ryzen 3 2200G, and just 8GB of ram and not upgrade my gpu at all but ... I am really looking to make this into at least a semi decent workstation. I suppose what I go with will entirely depend on how much I am able to save.
Sadly I missed all the winter sales -.-, so will probably have to try and be patient till things go back on sale and but the parts one by one. Maybe. Let's just hope this computer keeps chugging along till then lol.
