Out of the MANY vid cards I’ve been through.. I have had 4 or 5 ATIs.. and every one of them fried within a month :/
nVidia cards, on the other hand, haven’t given me probs at all (for the last 10 or so years).. just normal wear and tear. I usually update my cards every 2-4 years, and I’ve only had 1 that went bad (was about 5 years ago).
I prefer AMD over Intel, so that is why I wish that AMD had nVidia... it would make it a bit more compatible, not that I have any real trouble with my setup now.. but I think, since they are made for each other (AMD/ATI), it would improve performance.
Oh well, we have to adapt as the tech scene changes..

Thanks Bikkuri!
