Hey all,
My GPU has gone bad - suddenly, during a game of Minecraft white horizontal static lines are covering the screeen, chunky blocks, etc. I disabled the GPU and the integrated graphics seem ok. So, I'm guessing I have to replace the 220.
Inside, I've got:
• Intel® Core™ i7-920 processor (2.66GHz, 1MB L2 + 8MB shared L3 cache with QPI Technology)
and the power block says Max Power 460w Max Combined 385w . So, what can I get to replace the 220 that makes sense? Something I can grab at Best Buy later. I don't have hardcore gaming needs, but I do use 3d modeling software occasionally.
This is $159, which is the right price, but would it work?
PNY - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card
or for $219:
EVGA - GeForce GTX 960 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card - Black
Thanks!
