My system : e8400, 4gb mushkin ddr2 800, dead 8800gtx, Gigabyte x38 ds4, Corsair HX620 psu.
I use my comp for gaming, and I'd like to keep the video card under $300. I haven't used an ATI card in a very long time, have they improved their horrible driver support?
So after a solid 2 years of constant use, my 8800 GTX is finally dying. Graphics wigging out and locking up as soon as I get into windows, green lines all over my screen while booting etc etc. What would be a noticeable, reasonably priced upgrade?
Yep. Upgrading anyway, why not go for the rumored $260 HD5850 and DX11. I think it comes with a coupon for Dirt2 also, so that will sweeten the deal.their drivers are fine. nvidia's drivers are fine too. there are no bad drivers in my experience. if i were in your shoes i'd get an HD5850 when they're released (rumors say next week).

Rumored as in price.
I used to be sponsored by PNY, so I got the card for free from them. I don't think I can RMA it.
Perfect candidate for the oven if they won't RMA it:

I know the MSRP is $259. Just stating some venders will attempt to price gouge if demand exceeds supply.I don't think it's a rumor that the price is around $260. It was even on one of AMD's slides.
R.I.P. 8800 GTX
I think my BFG is on the way out as well
+1put it in the oven....seriously
definately makes sense!should change the name of the thread to "Zombie 8800GTX back from the dead"

Unfortunately I already put it in the oven, so no pics or vids.
Fortunately it works like a charm now!
Thanks for all the help!
