Vidya Card Esplode.

Post by Kerafym »

I've got 90 bucks to spend on a new one (Including shipping). I don't really have any preferance of ATI vs NVidia. However, in the event that two are exactly the same, I've had 2 NVidia cards die, and 0 ATI cards die, so I'd opt towards ATI. But if there's a noticible difference in NVidia's favor, I'll be glad to chalk up another NVidia card exploding on me as long as it's not for another two or three years. :|

By the way, FUCK YOU NVIDIA. At least this card lasted like 2 years instead of 2 months like my 5 series.

depends greatly on which card models you yews from each brand. Also depends on which individual vendor it was made by (ie visiontek, bfg, xfx)

Went with a 4850 from Sapphire instead.

I'm done with NVidia. Never, ever, EVER again.

I got a NVidia 8800 gts, so for me no problems at all, lol.
I hope it works correctly now ! ;)

Yeah well they're batting 0/2 for me. I'm not usually one to give second chances, so third is just out of the question.
