    PCSPECIALIST Spec check for 1440p @144Hz gaming + music production

    For audio work I'd 100% recommend using an external USB interface. I've always gone for the Behringer UMC models as they have quality Midas input pre-amps, up to 24-bit quality, up 20 192KHz processing, phantom power, low noise floor and pretty affordable. Low cost option -...

    PCSPECIALIST Valeon 17.3” laptop. USB-c video not outputting.

    Yes, correct. Had to dive in and open up the laptop case. Once opened up and powered on the usb-c port started to power the iPhone directly connected with cable?!? Thought, OK cool. Closed up laptop case, all screwed back in, powered up and re-connected iPhone. Nothing - no power. Time to give...

    PCSPECIALIST Valeon 17.3” laptop. USB-c video not outputting.

    Thanks Martinr36. Yes, I've tried all the combinations on the usb-c ports on the monitor - power / signal inputs. As I said, the HDMI input works right off the bat. I also have a similar portable monitor (15") with the same combination of inputs which I've also tested - same result. HDMI, yes...

    PCSPECIALIST Valeon 17.3” laptop. USB-c video not outputting.

    Great laptop and still quick despite it being 3 years old. I’m sure the usb c output worked in the past. Mainly used hdmi historically.

    PCSPECIALIST Fastest laptop for video editing & animation. Adobe creative apps.

    OK, thanks for the heads-up! Not upgrading really, I need another machine to take care of multiple tasks - rendering/effects processing while I edit away. Need it in a month or so for a specific project coming up that's heavy on the after effects side which currently stops me from editing while...

    Hi. I am upgrading from a 5 year old PCS laptop which has been brilliant. Mainly for 4k video editing in Premiere CC, after effects and all other Adobe CC programs.
