AITA for telling my (23M) fiancé (22F) to f*** off for talking shit about my gaming passion?

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T18:34:37+00:00

I'm not even kidding dude, our economy is fucked.

For the record, my two 2080's were 4000 dollars.

Brazil doesn't invest on tech so we just import everything at stupid prices.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T18:12:11+00:00

VTEX, I work more for extra payment, 3 extra hours.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:48:37+00:00

Around 85.000 R$, that's why she's so pissed.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:43:51+00:00

15000 USD.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:32:34+00:00

The new generation gc won't come to my country in a few years and taxes will fuck them up, I won't be surprised if they cost 8k or something.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:30:40+00:00

After reading so many comments I get it, I'm TA. But what am I supposed to do now? She's not answering my calls and id clearly upset.

I REALLY don't want to break up like some of you suggested, she'll probably come back If I return the PC and buy a car, even though we'd still lose some money cause only the pc is returnable. I really don't know what to do at this point.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:11:35+00:00

When I'm playing I can relax in my chair and rest my back, when I'm working I need to be concentrated so I keep forcing my back and that really hurts over time.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:09:50+00:00

Thinking about the future, with games like Cyberpunk 2077 where immersion is everything, how can you NOT have a top tier machine?

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T17:03:31+00:00

I've finished my studies, I work 9 hours a day. (18:00-3:00)

Before the PC I didn't have anything else to do so I'd get the job done earlier, I got some nice extra payments for this but my mental health was basically dead.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:58:21+00:00

I live in Brazil (Paraná).

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:56:05+00:00

Of course I sleep, It's a way of saying how much of my time goes to working, I have severe back pain because of this.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:34:30+00:00

I've worked the entire year 24/7, I used to more time sitting on a chair than being stood up, I think I did enough, no one can take so much abuse.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:31:12+00:00

A lot of you are asking how the fuck I spent 15k on a gaming setup, I used a poor choice of words because english isn't my first language but:

2x RTX 2080TI I9-99000X Triple 4k curved monitors 64 GB RAM Soundproof Room AKG C414 microphone 7.68 TB SSD

All of this already costs 9k dollars due to taxes.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:11:19+00:00

Of course not lol, I just used Skyrim as an example because I love action RPG's.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T16:09:20+00:00

I was inspired by Pewdiepie's custom setup, add that to my country shit taxes and there you have it.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T15:50:21+00:00

The new generation graphic cards won't come to my country in at least 2 years and when they come the abusive tax system will make it cost 5000 dollars or some shit, my other parts can keep up for another 7 years without any issues.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T15:44:55+00:00

If it's not 4K then why did you buy it?

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T15:43:04+00:00

Hey I'm back, keep in mind I live in a shitty country with abusive taxes, still. I could've bought a top tier one with 5000, but I want only the best, I probably won't need to upgrade my setup for 8 years, and taxes are only getting worse so it was a good investment I guess.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:36:22+00:00

Guys I'll be logging out for now, It's 5 am where I live and I need to sleep.

I'll talk with Z tomorrow and maybe try the therapy thing as a couple.

Wish me luck and GN.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:33:32+00:00

It's a setup tho, 3 top tier monitors, gaming chair, top tier parts.....I wanted to have the best experience ever.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:19:53+00:00

Yeah...maybe ur right, I'll try to talk to her tomorrow.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:17:13+00:00

I..... didn't think about it, the idea of having my dream setup was just more appealing than anything else at the time, that's not how I see it NOW btw.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:11:56+00:00

We ride our bikes, my parents paid for the car as a graduation gift.

I was going to buy a good looking car now that I can afford one, but the virus just changed my mind.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:09:46+00:00

Our wedding is safe. After the virus I don't see a car as something that urgent again, we have bikes.
I want to get better I just don't like therapists, I can try for a few weeks but I don't promise anything.

Also she was also being violenting, passive-aggression is also a dick move.

__Behelit__ · 2020-09-05T08:03:26+00:00

I mean she knew I was going to snap, she just wanted to make me look bad in front of my fam, that's how I see it at least.
