I've been having problems with my video recently to the point that when I boot the machine the screen stays blank (no bios messages, nada). I'm suspecting that my 4 year old Radeon VE is playing out. It could be some other problem, but I'm going to try replacing the video card just to see if that fixes the problem. From years of reading on this list, I get the impression that Radeon (ATI) is not looked upon as being of the same quality as NVIDIA. Maybe I'm wrong. And maybe there's some other brand that's considered even better. I'd like to get some recommendations from the list on what brand to buy. I'm running on a desktop machine so I need a small form factor card, which I'm sure most companies make. All recommendations greatly appreciated. Greg Wallace
