[QUOTE="Epedemic, post: 619666, member: 22528"] Hi I think my GF8600 GT is dying on me... Sometimes i get horrible pixelation and tearing on eveything (even basic win7 with no background). May be due to that it is passively cooled, and that it reaches almost 90C when decoding 1080i TV. So i'm thinking of a replacement, but what is the best value at the moment? I'm thinking i want HDMI 1.4 so i'm 3D ready, and it would be nice if it was also passively cooled, and audio out through HDMI would be nice too so i'm ready for DTS HD MA/Dolby TrueHD. My specs are: C2D 2.66 8GB ram Win7 x64 Asus P5KC (i believe it has Intel P35 chipset) I prefer something Nvidia based, as i know the drivers pretty well by now, but im open for AMD if there is any benefit. Hope someone will indulge me :) Thanks in advance. *Edit* BTW im running SAF v5.00 latest, and everything is running smoothly. [/QUOTE]
