you could do a RMA if the warranty is still there

id recommend a gtx670 like one from gigabyte or msi. if that is too much, id recommend the 7870 from asus. its 269.99

thank's for your input but to much money for me @ the minuet was thinking somewhere around £150-£200 mark

the 7850 is a nice card at that price bracket. sells for 150-180 pounds. if you spend 20 more pounds, you can get a 7870 which is 15% better overall

heres a 7850

7850/7870 are both great cards. Below site shows GPU benchmark and a price for each ... it may help you.
