    Question New GPU with older CPU --- capability advice for Unreal Engine 5 animation and VFX ?

    I'm wondering what's the highest graphics card I can upgrade to with my current system, without having to replace any other parts, and still be able to do high-end animation and VFX for film & tv production? I'd appreciate any recommendations. I'm currently running on a Windows 10 64-bit with...

    OS not booting from SSD after restart

    I did. Then I bought a new SSD and used the same cables and the new drive connected just fine. Pretty sure my original SSD just suddenly died.

    I'm running Windows 8.1 on a newly built PC only a few months old and since yesterday morning my computer keeps shutting down after being on for only about a minute or so. Sometimes it stays on for a bit longer, but not more than ten minutes at a time. I've ran an entire virus scan on it and...
