"Do Get Back To Me" job for "Prince Duarte"

[MindGoblin]

Has anyone completed all the "Do Get Back To Me" jobs? The first email was set out like one of those scam emails your grandma would fall for, pays $0 but promises $4000 at the end, and just wants a new HDD, which I had spare from a previous job, so I did the job thinking that it might be set to look like a scam but you actually get paid at the end, he wants me to build a whole system now and I'm reluctant to try it.

I'll admit I had a snoop on your profile and I don't mean to be rude but you don't even own the game so my scepticism is getting the better of me here

well no but he sent another one for me to build to run league of legends at recommended setting for 4k so ya you get the money but after building him 2 pc which isent to bad lol

U'll get the 4k. After this pc you have to build a LoL PC on minimum spec, and after that you have to upgrade it once more to get the 4k.

For those who want a build closer to 3,000 to save up money, here is what I went with (the GPU I just went with what Mr.FatMan suggested):

Case: SilverStone PS14 (Black + Window) ($40)
Motherboard: Mortoni Z170 Mtech ($100)
CPU: Intel Core i3-6100 ($105)
CPU Fan: Mortoni Thermal 100 ($10)
RAM: Mortoni Value Supreme 2 GB 2133 MHz ($20)
HDD: Mortoni EZStore 120GB ($20)
PSU: Shean Powerking 250 ($20)
GPU: Shean GeForce GTX 970 GAMER ($265)

Total: $580
3DMark Score: 3001


Then later I did indeed get a follow up email from the Prince himself, requesting me to upgrade the computer that I built for him to Recommended Specs for League. Here are the parts I replaced:
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 ($240) (i3-7600 was not unlocked for me yet)
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X+ 6G ($350)
RAM: add 1 more stick of Mortoni Value Supreme 2 GB 2133 MHz ($20)

Which brings the total cost of the entire endeavor to $1,190.
All to make a total profit of $2,810, which is not bad indeed. =)

Hope this helps whoever that's coming after me!
(And if you're brave/curious enough, maybe make the first build already specced enough to play LoL at Recommended, and tell us what happens to the quest chain!)

I did rejected after I changed his HDD. Should have searched the net.
