Hi
Need some advice what option should i proceed.
SCAN offered the below as replacement for an XFX 6850 xxx (offer on 26 Sep)
XFX DD Core Edition Radeon HD 7770 AMD Graphics Card - 1GB - FX-777A-ZDF4 - Scan.co.uk
Or
£50 +VAT refund
old card
XFX HD 6850 AMD Radeon Graphics Card - 1GB - HD-685X-ZCFC - Scan.co.uk
I think this is NO fair as
1. From the review the 7770 was slightly slower than 6850. Another downside is there lack of two DVI and two DP (oppose to old card)which is quite important to me.
2. The refund of £50 +VAT is totally inefficient as it does not reflect the current value of card nor it can bought another card with similar power
I am not sure how much refund should be acceptable at this point.
Bottom line is, I think should get any replacement which has at least same power as 6850 or be asked for some reasonable contribution toward upper model like... 7850
XFX Core Edition Radeon HD 7850 AMD Graphics Card - 1GB - FX-785A-ZNFC - Scan.co.uk
or
MSI Overclocked Radeon HD 7850 AMD Graphics Card - 1GB - R7850-1GD5/OC - Scan.co.uk
