[QUOTE="@nders, post: 1633816, member: 74071"] Thanks, that was exactly the list I was looking for :) Did not know that the XT card would do as well:) Without being too detailed, and maybe also a bit wrong. The reason the Nvidia cards fails one after another was, that due to environmental laws that year, they glue that binds the different layers of the GPU together had to be replaced. Although the replacement glue was, as you can see, not as good, and failed after some time. I know it sounds a bit odd to work on a 7 year old computer. But first of all, I dont feel like buying a new IMac for XX $ ;) But most of all, I like the idea that we dont just toss something away that could be fixed, and work perfectly for my, not so demanding, needs:) -- Anders [/QUOTE]
