Hi guyz..
My pc config is in my signature. When I restarted my system yesterday, Windows booted but there was not output on the monitor. The monitor output was fine when I connected it to the onboard output. I have tested both the motherboard and gfx card with my friend's which had the same config. I found out that the gfx card was not working (the fan was spinning though). I need your suggestion what to do now. Is it better to go for a newer card now or is it better to wait a little longer for the prices to fall or better cards to be released? I got two options:
1) Get the 8600 GT replaced, use it till the time comes to upgrade,
2) Buy a new card and a PSU.
Either case, I need to get the card replaced. If it is better to get a new card and PSU, pls suggest the best card for now. I have to sell the replacement card for 1-2k. My price line is 15K for the card. Pls also post the prices for the card and related PSU.
If I can get a good card for less, it would be better. I dont have SLI or CF in my mobo.
Thanks in advance.
