I'm getting this Error Message from my video card all week. "Your VGA Card has stopped responding." And i want to buy a new one.

I was thinking of getting an Nvidia 8800 GT SVGA (PCI-Express, HDCP, 512 MB) or do you think i should just replace the one i already have [ATI HD 3650 SVGA (PCI-Express, DDR2, 512MB)] ?

Tell me your opinion.

...I've seen and heard that w/ NVIDIA drivers...but with ATI? I'm lost on this one.

=( Michael, you and I seem to just be trading out computer problems. =(

Mine is an ATI Radeon 3870... and it seems to be great. I wouldn't switch to a different brand just yet, if you liked the old one before it stopped working. Sounds more like a phluke imo... idk.

I understand. I think i'll buy the ATI one. Thanks.
