    [SOLVED] PC Upgrade

    This is just what I was looking for thanks for the replies. I may even go with an i5 as I'm sure it will be plenty powerful paired with the GTX 1080 and much cheaper. I forgot about i5s having 6 cores now so it will also work well in rendering

    Wireless charging case

    I know that with a case wireless charging will work through it as long as it's not metal, but what if the case was like a battery pack that could charge wirelessly and charge your phone wirelessly? Could you still fit something like this into a form factor that isn't as bulky as a regular...

    Intel Pentium G4620 or I3-7300

    For 4k video rendering then it will take extremely long with either CPU, but the i3 has 4 threads which are similar to cores but not as good. If I had to say the i3 would be worth it over the Pentium. The i3-7100 is cheaper than the i3 7300 (US at least) and will deliver similar performance, but...

    CPU temperature problem

    The problem is not with your temperature I don't think that 80C max temp would throttle you CPU, but if your CPU usage is always pinned at 100% then when you have a intensive scene your CPU has no room to "give more performance"
