I would push the issue much further.

VGA Charts.

The card I got is exactly the same to this one -

Sapphire Technology Radeon X1650Pro 256MB GDDR3 AGP8x VGA TVO DVI-I (11091-00-20R)

It has better memory speed and the same clock core speed, and it works. To be honest, I don't think that 256 7600 card I put in there was faulty, I think it was a compatibilty issue and they couldn't find out what was wrong. So, instead they blame the card and try and get me to use a different card.

I'm happy with the deal, as I won't have to worry about it for too long as my G/F will inherit this system when I get my new PC parts and set about building it

X1650 Pro is still a decent card, but that sucks they couldn't have just given you an exact replacement. So I'm assuming this new X1650 Pro works flawlessly?

Long as you're happy, that's all that matters!
