Computer ****ed, Help!

TurdDrive · 27th Sep 2011, 01:30 AM

Computer just broke for no apparent reason,.

At first it wouldnt start up properly, and neither both my monitors would shows any sign at all. Then all of a sudden i get these huge rectangles appearing on the screeen, about 100 of them.

Then after a while, it loaded into windows but now i have these jagged lines appearing all over the screen,

So im thinking my GTX XFX 275 is ****ed?

yup !
try to grab another card to see if changing the GFX card really resolves the problem first, if possible.

gtx460 or 470 should be rather cheap now i guess. I have no idea about the 5xx series.

with my 470 and my i7 2600K i can play bf3 on ultra (which isnt really ultra because it's the beta) without AA at 55 fps @ 1680x1050

Hmm, The GPU is ****ed, (might bake it, as a last resort), but also the PSU is ****ed too.
So that more money out of my wallet.
