    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    Quick follow up question if my thread isn't already dead :ROFLMAO: I ordered every part for my new build except for the new PSU (it's on backorder). With that said, my current PSU is technically compatible with the new build so I wanted to know if it would be safe to use it temporarily until I...

    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    What about this? It's in stock! https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-crosshair-viii-hero/p/N82E16813119109 Is there anything you can tell me about this mobo that will help justify spending an extra $200 because I'm impatient 😬

    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    Thank you so much for the info. You've definitely sold me on the Ryzen, I'm gonna go for it! I'm bummed because it's looking like motherboards are sold out EVERYWHERE. I'll just buy the other components and wait I guess!

    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    That is super helpful to know about the temperatures thank you! Forgive me as I play devil’s advocate -- I’m researching more about the Ryzen and how it works with Maya specifically. It is my understanding that animation performance in Maya (rig manipulation, and viewport speed basically)...

    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    This is why I come here - You guys are the best! Out of curiosity, why is the Ryzen 3900x so much faster than the i9-9900k for use in Maya/Blender? Is it as simple as the higher clock speed/higher core-count? Otherwise, is there anything I should be aware of going the AMD route instead of...

    [SOLVED] Upgrading my CG-Animation Workstation (need advice)

    Hey guys! I built my first desktop workstation in 2013 (with the help of TomsHardware :D), and aside from a few parts that crapped out on me, it's gotten me through to 2020. With that said, it's definitely time for an upgrade. I mostly do CG Animation in programs like Maya, and/or blender. I...

    Quadro 4000 - Doesn't support 4K?

    I tried that to no avail :( My cintiq display says "Input video frequency not supported". I'm wondering if the only solution is to get another GPU that supports 4K res.

    Quadro 4000 - Doesn't support 4K?

    Hey there! I think I made a mistake... I just bought the new Cintiq Pro 24 (which is a pen display) that supports 4k resolution (3840x2160). Unfortunately the maximum resolution I'm currently getting is 2560x1440. My GPU is a Quadro 4000 - and after looking into it appears to only allow a...

    Kernel Error - Event 41 Task 63

    Do you mean if my computer turned off, and restarted automatically (without pressing the on/off button), that means it's probably the PSU at fault here? A problem with the PSU seems the most logical answer, but why wouldn't the erro happen more consistently? And why does the shutdown happen...

    Kernel Error - Event 41 Task 63

    I've had an issue on and off where my computer will just restart out of nowhere and when I check out the Event Viewer I see a "Critical" Kernel-Power Event ID 41 Task 63 error. This would happen totally randomly and I could never reproduce it - Until today. I discovered that this seems to...
