Hello, I want to take a video card from an old computer and place it into a new one, but the old computer had a lot of viruses. If I place the video card from that computer to the new one, will the viruses pass on to the new computer?
Thank you

You should be fine. Really viruses only live on your hard drive. There's no way that it can go through hardware like that, we don't like in 2243. ^_^
