In this video, I compare eSun ABS-CF and eABS+ filaments. The ABS-CF contains 8% chopped carbon fiber, which should improve printability, reduce shrinkage, and increase stiffness. But is it really better than eABS+ in real-world printing and mechanical performance?

I ran a full set of tests: shrinkage, warping, tensile strength, shear, torsion, bending, impact, and even creeping under load. If you're wondering whether it's worth upgrading from eABS+ to ABS-CF, this video should give you a clear answer.
