flatio Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Hello, fellow sellers and buyers on Fiverr! This is my 13th month here, and I can say every month was just better than the previous. My business on fiverr grew bigger and bigger, and I got more and more buyers and sales every month. Now I make around $3K - $3.5K a month and I’m aiming to make a steady $4K a month at least by the end of this summer, but right now my PC does not allow me to go any further.I mostly offer motion graphic/animation design jobs on Fiverr which requires a strong PC. To achieve my goal I know I need a better PC that will make the things possible which were not with my old one. Besides it is the logical thing to do after all, investing on your source of income, which is basically like expanding your shop. So, I decided to take my 1,5 - 2 months of earnings to setting up a new rig. In a couple of days I will have set up my new high-end workstation PC, using the best parts I could find:CPU: Intel Core i7 5960XGPU: Nvidia GTX 1080Motherboard: MSI X99A Godlike Gaming CarbonSSD: Samsung 512GB 950 Pro (Fastest consumer SSD)HD: Western Digital 6 TBPSU: Silverstone Strider Gold+ 1200WCase: CoolMaster Cosmos IICooler: Corsair H115i Water CoolingThe best thing is, all of the money that I spent on those parts came directly from Fiverr! Without Fiverr this could have never been possible. I love what I do on Fiverr, and with my new workstation I’m even more motivated now! I will get on creating new animations to offer on Fiverr right away.Thank you Fiverr, for making possible what I once though was impossible! I could not possibly be more grateful.

misscrystal Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I thought Corsair water cooling was what they used on speedboats to cool their engines.But the bottom of the engine has to be in the water at all times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenthtiermedia Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 It’s only a matter of time before you get that gold T. You’re killing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenthtiermedia Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 BEAST!! I’ll be getting the GTX 1080 soon (working on getting a Mac for the dumbest of reasons -_-…). How is the GTX 1080 for you so far? Titan users were absolutely livid once this card was announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatio Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 I do not have a GTX 1080 yet. I bought a 970 until I get a 1080 (changed my mind in the last minute). From what I see on the internet it is a beast, and I already saved some money for it. I’ll wait for ASUS’s custom version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
