Gaming BF Seeking Advice for My GF

[benjyhall]

HI All

 

I was hoping for some advice on a couple of subjects, now to start with the boring stuff (Lol) I'm a guy so i'm useless on this, it's my girlfriends birthday coming up & she has asked for some make up, so I've been looking at these guys but I'm not sure what brands to get, I was hoping to get some advice off some gamer girls (or guys, whatever) her birthdays in 3 weeks & I'm need to get moving on this, classic me leaving it to last minute.

Also on a more important topic, my graphics cards so out of date, anyone know where I can get a Quadro RTX 48 GB looking at around a £4000 budget, if there's a cheaper one for similar value to money, I'd love to see it.

Thankyou

B

You consider "three weeks in advance" last minute?  Can't help you with that makeup, 'though, sorry.

And regarding that Quadro card: You are kidding, right? Quadro-Cards are not really meant for regular consumers. They are used primarily for general purpose GPU-computing, i.e., heavy number crunching tasks. If you've really got that much money to spare, just get an Geforce RTX 3090.

I don't know much about cosmetics, but I think that IBM maybe have somthing of your interests, although I don't know, if you can negotiate your budget with them

I wonder if this is going to turn out to be one of those tag-team spam threads, where one person asks for a recommendation and then their mate shows up 24 hours later to post a link to the desired site.

Do girlfriends really ask their boyfriend to buy "some make-up" without specifying what they actually want (surely make-up is a very personal decision, not something you want an uneducated buyer to surprise you with), and since when do gamers use £4000 professional-grade workstation graphics cards?

Apologies to the OP if this is for real, but these are some very unusual requirements.

Someone's first post that has a link to an external site, and references nothing that is actually connected to this forum?  I'm guessing spam.

[Zerg Rush]

Sure it's spam or a troll, but it's not without a certain grace

Indeed, I'll give them credit for making it somewhat believable.

They might want to improve their targeting though. If the objective is to sell women's cosmetics, a forum full of male gaming nerds probably isn't the most effective audience.

I thought the same thing, but I figured I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Let's see if he shows up again.
