    Pretty sure I overheated my video card, and now I'm getting nothing but nvidia code 43 errors. Let my system cool, physically removed it, inspected it, cleaned it. Reinstalled completely fresh drivers, nothing. So, I guess I'm in search of a new video card. Problem is that I don't really know shit about computers. Didn't know shit when I built this PC 5 years ago, know less now. Anyways, I'm on a bit of a budget considering I've been jobless for 8 months. Major issue I have is going to be one of compatibility, since my built is ~6 years old. I can afford to upgrade the video card, but can't really afford to do everything. If I have to buy the same exact card again I will, but it seems like something like a 1050 isn't even that expensive. Anyways, here's what I got (taken straight from my order in 2014).

    i7-4770K Haswell 4.5ghz LGA 1150 84W
    EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2765-KR GeForce GTX 760
    ASUS Z87-PRO LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s
    Samsung 840 EVO MZ-7TE250BW 2.5" 250GB SATA 6GB/s
    G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16gb (2x 6GB) 240-Pin DD
    EVGA Supernova NEX650G 650W
