[QUOTE="@nders, post: 1633788, member: 74071"] Hi just as the thousands of other people who purchased a IMac in the start of 2008, with the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS card in it, mine has now also failed. After studying the problem on the internet, I can understand, that if I replace it with a another 8800 GS card, I will soon end up with the same problem, as most of the 8800 GS cards were almost sure to fail. Therefor I was thinking of finding an alternative, probably less powerful, but at lest reliant. So there by my question, what cards can I fit in my machine. So far I am thinking of the Radeon card bearing the P/N: 661-4426. But is there any others that will fit, as finding the above, at a reasonable price is not easy ;) Info on the IMac: Core 2 duo 3.06 GHz 24" screen early 2008, MB398LL/A Family ID: A1225 Introduced 2008-04-28 -- BR.
