The fan on the graphics card in my main machine decided to stop spinning last night while I was playing, followed shortly by a really bad smell and the machine going into a reboot loop. I was able to put a really old card in but its really not up to EQ so I'll have to go shopping tonight or tomorrow. Fortunately today's payday.
Old card is a Radeon HD5750, looking at the specs the 7750/7770 only seem to be similar in performance and I only really start to see improvement at the 7850 level (that will give me 2gb of memory for textures and stuff tho) so 7850/7870 is probably what I'm looking at.
Prolly not playing for a couple nights: magic smoke escaped
