The card was in there solidly.  I had a hard time getting it out. It
would have been difficult and time consuming to try re-installing it.
My choice is also me trying to think probabilistically.  The card is 12
years old.  I was having even worse problems when using the Fedora Live
Workstation (but no RPM Fusion driver with that), and moderate problems
with f40 (which did have the current, correct RPM Fusion driver).  I
figure a little better than 50% chance the card was bad, almost 50%
chance my problems were because the RPM Fusion nvidia driver was not yet
re-installed, and a slim chance the card needed re-seating.

A year or 2 ago my 660 card was acting up, forget how.
I decided to replace it with something newer but as similar
as possible.  I ended up with the Geforce GTX 1660 Super.

Swap/change over was simple.  Did have to download the
RPM Fusion drivers for it as the 1660 used a newer driver
than the 660.

Flawless so far including driver updates.
