The graphics card I got when I ordered the rest of the stuffs for my new PC is really over heating. Without me doing anything it goes to around 95 degree Celsius and that's with all the covers still off.
I'm thinking of returning that one and getting something a bit better which has got a fan on it unlike the one I currently have.
I'm not a gamer so not looking for a top end graphics card.
The most graphics intensive apps I would ever run would be Photoshop, Illustrator and that's on occassional basis. My budget is around £50.
I'm bending more towards nVidia ones because I've heard they've got better support for Linux and I usually have Linux installed on my PC.
