Couple of questions

Hello, I have a couple of question about different things. Only changes on my ender 3 is aluminium extruder, glass bed and 1.1.5 silent board, raspberry pi for octoprint.

  1. Printing with PETG - Is there anything special i need to upgrade on my ender before i can print with PETG? I heard capricorn tubing is needed, i have one from this package :

But it says " cloned capricorn tubing ", so i am not sure if that would be good enough? Is there anything else that is recommended ?

  1. Printing with 0.8mm nozzle, same question here about any needed upgrades ? I assume better cooling

  2. For setting up direct drive with current extruder, i would need extension cable, what type of cable is that ?

  3. Is there any way to speed up the printer, without upgrading to new motherboard?
