I recently upgraded from my 1660ti to a 5060. I used the NVIDIA app to install the new drivers!

At the start, it used to flicker two times at the time of boot when the window interface just loads, but now it flickers three times! is that an issue? and how to fix it?

I just want to know what people use Claude for and what plan you guys are on.

Is there any 3d artist or 3d product animator here? What do you guys use Claude for?

hi, i just posted about the blower 2080 and got the answer that i should not go for it so i was thinking and i increased my budget a little bit!

i am thinking of getting a 5060 8gb(new) gives me peace of mind because it has a warranty this is around $415

i have some other options in used like

a 3060 12 gb used for $325 or something and someother from the 30 series in this price range

my main purpose is work i make 3d animations in blender!

i am from Pakistan so the prices are different from US!

I am 18M, and my height is around 5'3 to 5'5, and I am quite insecure about whether there is any way to increase height after 18?

I want to buy a GPU for my 3d rendering, animation, and also gaming on the side!

But the shopkeeper that I purchase my usual pc parts from says if you can, then go for the brand new 5060, it will have less VRAM, but you will have peace of mind that it is never used and has a warranty

Now what should I do, and if there are any other options in 120k nvidia cause that works best in 3d

My priority is
relieblity
More VRAM is better, even if I have to make do with slightly lower performance

The only reason not to go for used ones is that there is no guarantee that it will die in a month or two

As the title says, I want a GPU primarily for my 3d work, but I would be gaming as well occasionally! i am fine with a used GPU, just need a lot of VRAM. Currently using a 1660 Ti, and it has 6 gb vram it is very limiting because of that!

I am a freelancer. Because of load shedding in my area, I got a UPS installed so my work wouldn’t stop. Everything was going fine until these f**kers started randomly changing the schedule without updating it. like changing it every other day. They cut the power whenever they feel like it, and I work on a PC, not a laptop!

Yesterday they took the power at 9:12. Today I waited till 9:20. They cut it at 9:40. They are literally doing unscheduled load shedding. Aur inki helpline pe call karo to bas yahi jawab milta hai: “Aap ke area mein koi issue ho gaya hai, hamari team fix kar rahi hai.”

Now I’m going to buy a UPS for my PC too. I’ve already lost two motherboards because of sudden power cuts, almost 70 thousand worth of computer parts because of چ-electrics.

As the title says, I am really struggling with getting direct clients!

Hey everyone, I'm a 3D product animator specializing in skincare and beauty brands. I have a job, but only making $400/month and trying to get freelance clients on the side.

I've sent out around 80 outreaches over 3 months across LinkedIn and Instagram with almost no results. My main issues:

When I sit down to write an outreach message, there's this voice in my head asking What value do I actually give them beyond pretty visuals? I know my work is good enough because I'm already getting paid professionally for it, but I still can't fully convince myself that a brand genuinely needs what I do.

Looking for advice from anyone who's successfully landed beauty/skincare brand clients as a freelance CGI artist. Specifically: where do you find decision makers, what does your outreach actually say, and how long did it take before you got traction?

Hey, so I have been working for someone until now. We created short animations for brands, beauty, skincare, and perfume, but the number of projects has taken a nosedive. What is the current situation in the industry?
