You're lucky you didn't get any "GPU Bombs". Basically they are wired to actively destroy any motherboard that you plug it into, so that when you angrily try to return it for a refund they can claim that your motherboard is the issue. A good way to determine if you have GPU Bomb is to connect an HDMI cable from a monitor (while the monitor is turned on) into the card. If the fan starts spinning without the card being plugged into anything else, DO NOT PLUG IT INTO A COMPUTER. I believe there are a few videos on KZbin that shows this happening. The only reason I knew about it was because a friend of mine got one of these off of Wish and it destroyed his whole setup, even the ram.

Recently seen newer cards on wish listed at $25,000-$45,000. Sometimes they don't have a mark down at all, although I guess that is just to suggest some credibility to the other ones. Usually after the "sale" they're still more than retail price.

I always LOVE when they try to sell GTX 1000 series cards with VGA connectors xD Tells you right away that you are looking at some dodgy GTS 450 or alike

[@n3xt214]

Actually GTS 450 is decent card lol, better than GT 710

@@n3xt214 anything is better than that dumpster fire

[@n3xt214]

@@rocoX1234 lol it's gt 710 was a rebranding from gt 9400. Also yeah GTS 450 it's like 9800 GTX but double the performance

[@Pieroozeg]

Yeah, I had gts 450 until the end of 2020, and old crysis (not remastered one) actually ran on highest settings... So those on video are probably knockoffs from old 450s that were not good enougj

[@johnfisher1609]

@@Pieroozeg I bought one of these (black and green one)and got to keep the card and got my money back. They just have a shitty bios and when you flash the bios back to a 450 they work fine. I would have used the one I have it had an external 8/6 pin power plug but 100w pulled through the pcie slot isn't a good idea imo. ( btw. you need to use a the gts450 512mb bios or modded gts450 1gb bios another youtuber has a vid on this that has the modded bios on the video description). Also the chyneese dudes that are making these are locking the bios so it has to be done with an external CH341 USB bios flasher after that you can flash the bios all you want with nv flash

The reason why the gpus aren't working right is because when your installing the drivers from the internet, it installs the drivers for the 1050ti not for the gtx 470 or whatever it is, so you have to use the drivers that are included on a cd and that's right no driver updates

I bought a few cards from wish years ago when I heard of this. Same ones in the video. I reported then as fake, got my refund. Then I flashed the bios and used them as spare cards. I had to read/flash the cards bios with the card powered or de-solder the bios chips.

hello the reason for being able to reprogram the bios chip is probably in the clips for quick connection with the bios chip unsolder the bios chip from the board and solder it directly to the programmer so it is certain that there is a connection with the chip greetings from bulgaria

This video in a nutshell: you shouldn't buy stuff on Wish.

[@justinkashtock333]

An additional problem occurs in the secondary market where people will sell these cards on FB Marketplace, Ebay, OfferUp, etc. once they realize they've been had. I saw a guy on the Facebook Marketplace last week selling a "1060" for $40, and just by looking at it you could tell that it had an older GTS 8600 style cooler on it, so it was blatantly obviously a fake card.

[@joakimcarlsen71]

i can't even imagine why anyone would buy a graphics card on wish, spend 60 bucks, expect 600$ performance?

[@udalix]

Should be obvious it's all just a scam. First time I seen stuff being sold there it was obvious (Things that retail for like $1000 being sold for less than $100). People I know bought stuff from there and its the most "expensive" junk you can buy lol.

[@baqcasanke]

I got taken by BFG back in the day on a "too good to be true" price. I think it was the BFG 280 GTX its was on sale for like a mid range price at best buy. Got it, within 5 minutes in a game it artifacted and crashed, It was overheating like a boss. I had a well ventilated case at the time (it was a thermaltake case cant remember the model) Looked online apparently a ton of people were having the same issue called support and they acted like they didn't know what I was talking about when I said this appears to be a known issue, it was the middle of winter and opened the window in my office, it was like 40F and I was wrapped in a blanket, damn thing was still overheating. He wanted time to figure out a solution and call me back. Come on there was a reason they were selling these things at such a discount, I assume a good portion of the batch were defective. After I got off the phone I returned the thing to Best Buy and bought an Radeon HD5850.
