Mio Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Ok, this is my problem: When I first bought this computer It had a Nvidia 9100 In it, That died after 2 years. 4 months ago, I had to replace it.. Took it to a shop to get it sorted and He installed a Nvidia 5200.. I was pretty much baffeled at him saying it's one the best on the market atm.. I cant even play High detail runescape with it.. :/ Well back to the main point, Before My 9100 broke It my computer started making loud noises, and my CPU was constantly high. I've only had this graphics card for 4 months now and it's already started making the sounds and high CPU usage again. :/ Anybody know of a reliable graphics card that isn't too expensive that is for sale for the UK? Thanks alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeDaStudd Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I wouldn't get a new gpu alone. It sounds like theres a chance its your psu which is causing the trouble, so I would get a new psu before you get a new gpu.

Sbrideau Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Lol, that computer shop ripped you off, 9100 is better than the 5200... I didn't know there were computer shops that still had such low performance and old cards. Hope you never returned to that shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSBDavid Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 What wattage is your power supply? Is your computer a prebuilt and if so can you link the specs? [software Engineer] - [Ability Bar Suggestion] - [Gaming Enthusiast] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
