    Hey guys,

    My Sager's video card seemingly died about 6 years ago. I was refused my extended warranty from PCTorque because their insurance company went under.

    I pulled it out this week in hopes of getting it back up so that I could use it because my desktop is starting to go. I've done a lot of testing and am pretty confident that the video card is to blame.

    The official Sager website has no more cards for these models. I'm looking for the "nVIDIA GeForce Go 7800GTX" for this model, or an upgraded card--if you know any that will absolutely fit this motherboard.

    I've been unable to find a spare one online and am getting a bit discouraged of getting this thing fixed.

    I have, however there aren't any that match the model I have (as far as I can tell).
