Hi Nikos, regardless how powerful a payable graphics card may be... if one uses the same graphicsscards for rendering as for the desktop the desktop starts heavily lagging/freezing just in the moment blenders rendering engine Cycles start working. At least, these are my experiences. Thats why I use an old just-fast-enough graphics card for the desktop and a second, more current one for rendering only. Best regards, Meino
