Another PC or a MAC?

[Jimbeam3678]

First please try and keep the advice constructive

My 3 year old RIG's GFX card has gone or is going pop. Screens going green

SO its got me thinking should I repair my current RIG , break it up and sell it on MM or buy an IMAC?

Really am in 3 minds here , I've been with PC's for 14 years but have got IPAD and I like the fact it just works etc etc. However looking at the prices of IMAC are making my eyes water

Have any of you lot changed from PC to IMAC or vice versa and willing to spare 5 minutes of your time to give me your opinions and real life advice. Not just the usual stuff you read from people who may not of even given either format a fair go.

Thanks in advance for anyone who takes 5 minutes to give me some advice

Possibly offtopic, but a green monitor may well be a faulty cable / socket. I've got an old screen here that has a definite green hint across the entire screen unless I wiggle the cable a bit, then it comes back to normal colours. In that case it's the socket (unfortunately). You might not need a new mac, or a new pc.

Your VGA Cable might just be loose?

It's defin not a loose lead or dodgy connection, cleaned it all out of dust etc etc happened again but all yellow screen this time

Been ok since then run a few benchmark graphic programs and all seems to be fine ...... Will have to wait and see me thinks
