i'm guessing the rest of your hardware is as old as the card?

I dont realy like AMD) i think they are easyer to fail than Nvidia.

R9 270X. Sapphire has some good deals.

All hardware fail equally, no matter the brand. All companies produce and manufacture components that are at their very best. All will have components that will be DOA or some other thing. You can't say AMD fails over Nvidia when Nvidia has been known to fail more times than you can count.

and to add insult to injury............... surprised that dual card actually lasted as long as it did. they had known hot spots.
