my radeon 9800NP started to make my screen change colors so i went to the store and they replaced it for me when i got back home i installd it and the screen now is much more darker then it was before i mean its like those old computers when the display turns yelow is the card fuked up?

edit: i took the card to the store and after a fea days they replaced it to a sapphire card now the problem is the card shows in all the programs as pro but the frequencies are same to the non pro version
and on the memory its writen electro teck 2.8
on the old card the memory was 3.2 samsung
what to do with the card?

Why don't you check your moniter instead before buying another card. If another screen dont work, yes, then it is fux0red and should be replaced.

Maybe it's a sh*tty moniter that can't handle new cards?
