Yeah, I've been wondering how they actually shut down and not work anymore.
I've had 3 different graphics cards and all have ended the same.
1st was my Geforce 5200 - this was with my for like 2 years. I understand that this might have been a wear and tear issue.
2nd was my Geforce 7600 - this may have been because I replaced it for the 5200 which was using an old system... dunno.
3rd is my recent Geforce 9800 - I have had my new comp for 2 months and this is the thing that decides to die on me.
I was in the middle of reformatting my 1TB HDD because I had a virus I couldn't get rid of.
Do you guys know what things would make the graphics card shut down?
There's the issue of overusing the computer but there are people that go more hardcore than what I do on the comptuer and their comps seem to have longer lives.
