For some reason, when using the persp camera, the view gets messed up.
For example, Objects seem to be on top off other objects, intersect, etc when they do not. Sometimes SubDivs just disappear.

This is quite confusing since you need to be close up for SubDivs to see/edit them. Is this just a maya bug? And is there a way to fix this?

It renders out perfectly fine though.

here is a pic of how it looks: (none of the objects intersect when renderd)

appears to be a graphics card error. are you just using the GFX card that came with your computer?

Yep. It's a ATI Rage 128 Pro, if thats of any use.
Now at least I know the problem.
Any recommendations for a Graphics card?

Its no problem ^_^
I have an nvidia 8500 GT which I picked up for 100 dollars online, which was well worth it. works great with maya. also, I used to have an Nvidia 6800, which worked fine, but I highly suggest the 8500 GT, as it isnt too expensive for how great it is.
