tonyou, no, tom is just unlucky. The G400s are some of the best high fsb video cards out there. Is your G400 MAX overclocked? If it is, set it back to normal. Firstly because everything will become normal again and secondly because overclocking the G400 MAX does virually nothing. I know of someone who actually got slower when he went from the 166/200 to 200/225. 😛
