    Doh. I didn't spot that. I had to upgrade it at a later date to the PNY Nvidia RTX A2000 as that card became out of stock. Its the RTX A2000 I can confirm.

    My new PC from PCS has a PNY Nvidia RTX A2000 and the fan may be faulty or not but I'm struggling with the continuous high pitch noise that comes from it. I notified them straight away and they agreed to do a swap but its now 3 weeks and I'm being told that its out of stock and due in on 14th...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST M.2 SSD Drive Options

    This is what they wrote to me, I've been on the phone and email them. I'm getting desperate for it, my current PC is dying on me more and more each day :( It went into the building stage last Friday for about 2 hours then went into testing, no notes have been added. I chased it yesterday and...

    PC specialists have tried two different motherboards and they both have overheated too quickly. Can anyone suggest any changes to this spec, eg different MB or better/more cooling? TIA! Case CORSAIR iCUE 5000X RGB MID TOWER GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X 24 Core CPU...

    OK what does one look for in a GPU for a CAD workstation? I'm seeing AMD quoting Streams and NVIDIA quoting CUDA. is more better? Should i lean towards AMD because I have an AMD CPU? What about the PNY NVIDIA RTX A2000 this is about the same price as the Radeon Pro W5500 but its 6GB instead of...

    Oh OK. If it doesn't garner any interest can I set up a new thread just asking generally what one looks for in GPU for CAD workstations, would that be OK?

    Hi, the last post was created as a new thread because it is a separate issue to this topic. I was starting a topic on GPU's for CAD Workstations. Why was it merged then?

    Hi, I've hit a stumbling block on GPU's. As you can see below I started off with an 8GB NVIDIA 3060 Ti but then swapped to an AMD Radeon Po W5700 as I was lead to believe its more suitable for CAD which is what the PC is mainly going to be used for. I am told the W5700 is out of stock and was...

    PCSPECIALIST Dual monitors setup for CAD

    Can anyone help me? I've just ordered a new PC (it has 8GB NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3060 ti GPU) and I would like 2 side by side 24-27 inch monitors for CAD use. I want it to be as bright and high-def as possible but I don't do any gaming whatsoever. I would like to have the one on the left portrait...

    What's your opinion on the motherboard? I totally haven't got a clue, it doesn't need WiFi and more USB ports the better really. In terms of GPU my current one I'd rubbish so I'm settling for this 8GB rtx 3060ti. From reading the forums I don't think GPU is that critical. I don't do 3d...

    Thank you once again for your replies. Yes Pro's are too much money. I think just the 24 core Threadripper will do nicely. This is what I am thinking of going with now. It's coming out as £3606 Inc VAT which is on budget (I was budgeting 3k PLUS vat,) sorry didn't mention before VAT earlier...

    Thank you so much for looking into Scene and even trawling the Laser Scanning Forum of which I know really well! I am leaning towards the Threadripper Pro now, the only thing that put me off was that the marketing looks like its more geared towards gaming and intel looks more professional...

    The software is Faro Scene 5.3. Thats from 2015. Its obviously been updated but its very expensive to get the latest update and not necessary for what I use it for. With AMD processors I can only spec up to 64GB RAM. I had my mind set on 128GB. Does this swing things back into the i9 court? At...

    Looking into this further, has it got something to with the Firtecuda requiring PCIe 4.0 hardware? Does the motherboard or processor need to support it? So confused!

    Hi, Im speccing up a PC with an i9-10980XE processor and an ASUS PRIMe X299-A II board. For some reason I cannot choose a Seagate Firecdua 530 GEN 4 as the 1st M.2 SSD Drive but I can select it as the second M.2 SSD Drive. I only want one M.2 SSD Drive and would prefer it to be the faster...
