Well, let me tell you, as a broke high school student with a lot of expensive hobbies, I can certainly help you out with the struggle it is to afford being a person and have fun when your wallet doesn't agree with it. Now, if you just came across this blog without any computer knowledge you may be asking yourself, "What is a GPU? I thought it was called a CPU?" well, although they sound similar, and really just do a lot of math, the Central Processing Unit handles the core computer functions, keeps it running, and can create basic graphic function, like your desktop display, Graphics processing units, on the other hand, process...well, graphics.
