It's my understanding that you really need something like 3-5 years of experience to be taken seriously as more than just a paper tiger CCNP, so I'm wondering what I can do in the meantime while I gain work experience.

    No video output with new card

    I just bought a 5670 to go into an A64 build that has been running an x300 for a while.
