How To Tell If Graphics Card Is Aging (Updated)

<< < (3/3)

Ichigo:
Since I'm not on shiny beautiful gaming rig, thusly unable to post TS2 pictchas, can anyone give an example of said artifacts?

J. M. Pescado:
You know, green funny colored crap on your screen, etc. Things which indicate that the rendering logic has failed and genuine garbage is being generated, as opposed to stuff that doesn't actually really exist because the monitor is broken, your vision is bad, etc.

Tarlia:
When my graphics card was dying, TS2 would frequently freeze and everything on the screen would explode in colourful crap. Actually, the whole machine froze and had to be rebooted. A couple of weeks later, the graphics card died. I could tell by the fact that Windows wouldn't start and my screen was covered in wonderful green and pink stripes.

If your graphics card is going, you'll know. It'll be more serious than slight bluriness. Are you sure you're not just remembering wrong because you're used to TS3 being more shiny?

Strangel:
Ichigo - Graphics card seizure:

Ichigo:
Alright, I'm officially just seeing things. When I start seeing a tidalwave of MS-Paint shaded vomit, I'll know. BAHHHHHH.  :)
