    Hi,

    My graphic card Nvidia Geforce 9800M GS died a few weeks ago. But I don't really have a clue what graphic card I could buy... I can buy the same or one better... I already read that the GTX 260 M works. does it work that good? or is there some problems?
    Are they maybe other that could work?
    And is it really good to buy a used graphic card?

    Thank you for your help!

    You can upgrade to the 260 but you lose fan control.

    Moving this to the Asus gaming forum.
