Graphics card done for?

So I my PC just randomly started doing this earlier, did it first when I tried to load in to CSGO but its done it a lot more since then even on the desktop.

It works fine with a different graphics card plugged in and I've tried uninstalling nvidia drivers, installing older ones and installing newer ones.

I guess I'll give it a go tomorrow. Hopefully it works or I guess its console gaming for a while

It doing the same thing on the bios screen probably isn't a good sign is it?

Might have to find a cheap replacement card.


Edit : After removing all graphic drivers it looks like this all the way from the bios to desktop, it doesn't lock up but it doesn't exactly look .. healthy.

Can anyone recommend me some good budget graphics cards?

My PSU is also only 600w so would be nice if it worked fine with that

I have a GTX 580 atm and max would probably be around £200 but can possible go a little higher. No AMD / Nvidia preference.

Has the same performance: EVGA GeForce GTX 660 FTW ACX 2048MB GDDR5 £150

Again the same performance: MSI Radeon R9 270 Gaming Edition OC 2048MB £138

Faster: MSI GeForce GTX 760 OC Gaming Edition 2048MB £176

Faster again: VTX3D Radeon R9 280 3072MB GDDR5 £190

I think for the money the 760 Gaming is the best one @ £176.

Thanks. I ordered the R9 280 for the extra memory since I think it'll come in useful for 1440p gaming and I've never had an AMD card before so want to give them a go
