My visiontek Geforce4 Ti4200 128MB seems to be crapping out on me. The fan just stops at random times and I have to fiddle around with the card, moving it back and forth, to get the fan running again. I suspected it might be the AGP slot on my motherboard, so I put in my old Voodoo5 and it worked fine.
So to my question, I am looking to upgrade to a ATI Radeon 9500 Pro, which seems to be the best bang for buck video card these days. Is there a major difference between the different brands, Athlon Micro, Sapphire, ATI? The ATI is a bit more expensive but if there is a big difference, I'll spend the extra and get ATI, rather than the Sapphire or AM for less bucks.
Suggestions?
