    PCSPECIALIST 4070ti install power cables

    Update I bought 2 cables from the Corsair Amazon store and they worked perfectly. I use a bluetooth mouse and I have noticed a bit of pointer stutter since the upgrade. I've replaced the battery but it is persisting. Any ideas?

    PCSPECIALIST 4070ti install power cables

    Great! I shall dig out the box and see. If not, could you make a recommendation for a good cable, or are they all pretty much the same?

    PCSPECIALIST 4070ti install power cables

    Thank you, I traced the run back to the PSU and it is only a single cable 😕 Does that suggest a new separate is needed?

    PCSPECIALIST Recoil 17"Liquid Cooling Unit

    PCSPECIALIST PC Upgrades

    Blender uses Cycles for rendering and I set it to use the GPU which is fairly typical to the best of my knowledge. A couple of Blender settings images attached for reference. Budget would be somewhere around £500 - £750 for the GPU upgrade. I presume space is a major issue and I also...

    PCSPECIALIST PC Upgrades

    Thank you so much for the replies. I'm hoping to see an improvement in render times on Blender. I also have a recoil 17" with a 4090 liquid cooling system, so the comparison is stark, but the same scene renders on the PC and takes 1m.30s, the laptop takes 15 seconds. I appreciate it's in a...

    PCSPECIALIST New Laptop Spec help

    Thank you so much! A couple of questions... Any particular advantage to 17inch over 16inch other than display size? Would it run cooler for example due to increased chassis size? Would it be worth stretching to the 4090? thanks again

    PCSPECIALIST New Laptop Spec help

    Hi All, I'd like some help with spec'ing a new laptop. Principle use is for Blender so a build that maximises the GPU seems to make sense to me. I'll need this build to last so quality of chassis is also important. My current Clevo with GTX 1050 ti isn't really up to scratch for my needs. A...
