If someone proposed to me with a high-end GPU I think that would seal the deal honestly

I went with a 1kg collar last time, so I’m likely a terrible person to ask. Wasn’t my intent, but it turns out that much steel is really heavy.

Not gonna lie; I would be in favor of giving a ring with a GPU attached on it rather than a diamond.
