    Sort what out? You need to send the donation to the correct email then it will show in the donations sheet that o have access to. You need to get in touch with PayPal if you made a mistake in the email you donated to. As for the typo in the comments about Prema that's not a big deal

    I did get your email thank you but I don't add it to the sum here until I saw it on there donations spread sheet which I didn't yet

    btw. did you send it to the [email protected] or [email protected] , the second one is the correct one.

    If its the correct one, you should get a reply from hidevolution soon enough.

    @Phoenix I think he means, that his donation did not get counted for because he did not mention that this was for Prema's donation in the proper place (subject im guessing).

    sent it [email protected]. And I simply meant, I typed a typo in the comments section, typing Perma instead of Prema. In case that screwed up the donation. But seemingly, there appears to be a time delay of sorts?
    so all should be good then. haven't gotten a reply from hidevolution though.

    guess it hasn't reached hidevolution yet. I don't see the charge on my credit card despite paypal claiming otherwise. Oh well, I'll send an email tomorrow to hidevolution, if nothing shows up. Thanks Phoenix and bloodhawk!

    Seems very common, unfortunately. And, even more common when money is originating from outside the USA. PayPal acts like the Gestapo sometimes.

    our goal is not a GPU upgrade, we wanna try to sup up his system as much as possible :) SSDs, GPUs, faster RAM.

    he deserves every bit of it :D

    Yeah, he doesn't care much about the SSD's they can be purchased later and are not as expensive. Preference to SLI first, or the 1080DT and RAM :D. FASTER RAAMM.

    Smart man, Brother @Prema. I really miss SLI, too. I do love the 200W GTX 980... awesome GPU. The only reason I chose it over 980M SLI is because 980M hasn't been a good product for me overall. But, the only thing better than one outstanding GPU is more than one. I know some people complain about SLI, but I've had no issues to speak of with it, and in the rare instance you want to play a crappy game that doesn't support it, no biggie, just disable SLI and enjoy the same experience everyone with one GPU enjoys. But, the rest of the time you kick their ass six ways to Sunday with SLI.

    Yeah, Brother Prema mentioned he also wants the SLI so he can easily rescue failed flashes...
    I'm sure for this reason alone we can all agree is pretty much a necessity no?

    What Brother @Phoenix surely meant is that ideally we donate as much that Prema is able to feel free upgrading whatever he wants. And I agree with Brother Phoenix: he deserves every bit of it! ;)

    Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed? :rolleyes: I said we wanna try to sup up HIS system. Meaning, the more money we have in the donations funds, the more choices he has in upgrading it with the latest specs that HE pleases.

    When the new Clevo beast is released, Prema will know obviously, and whatever funds there are in the donations account he uses to maximize it as HIDevolution is providing him with the base system.

    We have to squeeze it some more!

    Me myself at this point can't donate for this important goal in usd$. Donated what left on my PayPal account (Not much :( )

    But!
    I have some coins (0.45BTC | some Dogcoin and Darkcoin) worth more than 300$.
    If someone certified for this goal can assure me that it will go for Prema's system i will more than glad to transfer it. (after ill get home this weekend, connecting my linux old mining HD and transfer it ;))

    Good luck Prema!

    An easy way to 'tag' someone at NBR forums, put a '@' sign in front of their login/username. For example, I am @jclausius not jclausius. And you would be @sa7ina not sa7ina.

    Although, you used links, @jaybee83 just added the appropriate tags to a new post, notifying Mr. Fox and Pheonix of the post. Note, I think using [USER] tags also will notify users of a post - but never have tried.

    Hi bro, I don't accept PMs so you can't start a conversation with me.

    What is BTC Transaction anyway? I don't have any control over the money part, it's best to contact HIDevolution if you have any transaction not showing.

    All I can see is the total donations spread sheet.

    BTC = BitCoin

    I started a PM and invited @Ted@HIDevolution and @Donald@HIDevolution to respond. If push comes to shove he can send it directly to Prema, but it would be nice to keep all the donations together if that's possible.

    Sending it to Prema is not ideal. Like I donated a $100 USD to Prema last month but we want everything to go into the gifts account. It wouldn't be a gift if Prema had to send money from his account to HIDevolution even if it was received as a donation on his part.

    Just my 2 cents

    Exactly. I totally agree, which is why I started the PM with them. However, if he is donating in BitCoin and HIDevolution does not have a way to do that, sending it to Prema might be what he ends up having to do as a last resort. I have no experience with BitCoin and have no idea how any of that works.
