Right all today my 7900GT has died, I was getting crashes left right and centre, so I then took it out of the pc and carefully cleaned it on on the static pad with a aresol air canister, I then made sure it was seated properly and that all leads was connected, once and twice over.

When I goto boot the pc up everything spins over inc the gpu's fan but nothing to my screen, I am thinking the gpu is dead.

I will have in a few weeks about two hundred pounds for a replacement gpu card for my pci-e mobo.

I am looking for something 7950GT I did spot a 7950gx2 with 1gb onboard memory which caught my eye but cannot find it again on SCAN Or OCUK.

Any help would be nice. I'm posting this from the old P3 Dell Dimension 4100 we have...and boy is it flaming slow.
