Hi guys first time poster here.
I am about to order the Octane 2 Pro. I know that Pascal is around the corner but I need the laptop asap (sold mine 2 months ago and have 3D rendering projects waiting to be done), and I do not mind getting the GTX980 now knowing it will be cheaper in few weeks, but worried about long term as Pascal seems to be so much of an upgrade.
Will I be able to upgrade the current Octane 2 Pro with a new desktop GPU? I could maybe do that in a year or two.
I do not know if the current desktop GPU installed in there is something standard (I can replace it in the future for new ones) or it is a singularity (special version for laptop that they will not do again) and that I will never be able to upgrade it.
If I can't upgrade then, I'll probably have to suck it up and wait.
Thanks!
