So, my screen just hung and computer had to be rebooted. It did not reboot gracefully, but I found that if I removed my graphics card and used my onboard video, the PC booted normally. I then vacuumed the graphics card and reseated it, but again, the PC would not boot. I guess the card has died.

It was a XFX HD 6870 black edition PCI Express. Any recommendations for a replacement card which is similar or better in performance whilst being a quiet card?

I don't want a top end card to put in my current pc setup which will no doubt be replaced soon enough. Looking to spend around 60 notes (too hopefull?).

TIA.

Buy from members market on here? 6950s probably go for around that price and easy to unlock to 6970 via bios mod.....old card yeah but still decent enough imo.
