Having finally berated Overclockers long enough that their sending out a replacement for the faulty x850xt I returned in July, I find myself wondering if i'm still being messed around by them.

Having paid £185+VAT(Just over £200) for my AGP x850xt, I got a month and a halfs use out of it before problems started, and I had to move back to my old 9500.

its then taken them 3 and a bit months to turn around, what essentially was a straight replacement job (my card was one of the faulty batch of x850xts from Powercolor Overclockers got earlier in the year, and was completely dead).

Now after repeated phone calls to their service dep. to finally get my replacement, their sending me an AGP Leadtek 7600 GT 256MB GDDR3 (Valued at £114 +VAT).

Would like some advice whether i'm finally getting a reasonable replacement considering the **** i've been put through for the last month and a half trying to find out what the hell had happened to my card.

Will this replacement card (really wish it wasn't an Nvidia :() be upto scratch with my previous card, or preferably better than, as the figures on paper don't add up. (£60 down, 3 and a half months waiting for a simple switch, down from 16 pipes to 12).

Not upto date with new cards as my computers been pretty much crippled all summer waiting for this replacement, so all advice would be appreciated.
 
Finally got the replacement card through, and having been stuck with the old 9600 all summer, must say i'm impressed so far with the cards performance.

One happy customer here at last :D.
