The video card is an EVGA Nvidia 8600GT. It has date codes of 0728 on parts. I guess after 17 years of service I can't complain.
Wow. What drivers are you using? My (newer) GTX 650 is not supported by current proprietary drivers.
I am thinking maybe I will try an AMD 7600 XT and see how that amdgpu driver in the kernel is doing these days. I haven't given AMD a chance in a very long time after all.
If you've been using a 2007 card, you probably haven't been asking much of it. Wouldn't the cheapest card you could find be good enough?
