Update on my video card
Hey, everyone! :)
I just wanted to start by thanking all of you who have been supporting me, and also give you an update on the video card situation.
As I mentioned in the last dev log, my old video card, an RTX 3060, stopped working. So, I borrowed an RTX 2070 from a friend, which I’ve been using for the past two weeks or so.
I don’t have hundreds or thousands of supporters like many other developers out there, but some of you went out of your way to help me gather extra money to buy a new GPU—whether through subscribing to the Aurora Road tier or individual commissions, or even directly donating. I am truly grateful to have such amazing people supporting me like you do, and I promise to give back to you in any way I can.
Thanks to your help, I was able to buy a used RTX 4090—the cheapest one I could find, though it still cost me 11,000 in my currency (Brazilian Real). Either way, I’m now back at work with a much faster, and working, video card.
I will probably be bottlenecked by the rest of my PC now, but that's the least of my worries at this point. 🤣
Once again, thank you so much for giving me that boost and helping me gather the remaining money I needed. ♥
Have an amazing rest of the week, everyone!
