is my Graphics Card dying?

[mastag]

my Radeon 9800 Pro was running all my games, Far Cry, Doom 3, HL2, Halo, Battlefield 2, etc, just fine a few weeks ago. Now recently, all those games are lagging. I am sure I have the latest drivers. Is there hope, or will i have to go get a new Card?

try reformatting first. Electronics either works or doesn't. It doesn't decrease in performance as it gets old (it shouldn't).

Reformat should do the trick i do it twice a year.

delete a lot of crap you dont need on the pc and defrag.
