I love it when people cry over their shitty graphic cards, I roll in the suffering of others then I can feel proud of my mid level GPU, so I don't break over the high level GPU's.
@@Danny_rox At this point? Dont bother buying gpu, if you are planning to build a pc Buy a ryzen apu like ryzen 3 2400g or ryzen 5 3400g. These two APUs are capable of running light to medium games, I have played rainbow six with ryzen 3 2400g (my friend's apu btw, we swapped for a while). Why buy this cpu/apu insgedsdtof gpu, well the gpus on the market are now having a ridiculous inflation I'd not care to upgrade to anything at this point and just wait until next year when the market goes back to msrp. Also side node, the difference between the ryzen 5 3400g and ryzen 3 2400g, sorry if I got the wrong model but you can look it up, they both perform similarly on games, but the difference comes in when you are going to use it in softwares so it depends on your need if it's solely for gaming and on budget, opt for the ryzen 3 apu if you're willing or have some spare budget go for ryzen 5 apu. You can upgrade later down the line and it would be best to have 18gb of ram since it'd boost the performance especially on ryzen cpus
@@Danny_rox Honestly right now if want to get your monies worth you really need to purchase a entire pre-built gaming computer to get a GPU at a decent price. And its not going to change any time soon. Trump's 25% tariff is still on going. There is a on going silicon waffler shortage. Demand on production was some thing like more than 10X what was projected for the year creating a huge shortage and it takes time to ramp up production, experts think it could be another year before production meets demand. And normal is still going to be more expensive unless Biden drops Trump's tariff on all video card coming out of China.

Not only do they sell you a fake card with the wrong bios on it but then they lock you out of flashing the original bios back onto the thing to make it at least a functional card? That's beyond scummy
I rolled the dice on one of these from Amazon, since I needed a video card and I was willing to bet $50 on getting this good a deal. The card arrived without any anti-static wrapping or protection at all, in a generic "GRAPHICS card" box with the exact same CD you showed. When the card arrived, it just flat out didn't work (blue screen on start), so I told the seller - in China - that it wasn't working and he said "okay, I'll refund, you don't have to send it back." In the end I can't really complain too much.
@@swiar_d7057 What actually happens is they set up a couple hundred of these in a crypto mining rig and just run them until they burn out. Eventually they upgrade to new cards, all the old ones get yanked, and nobody checks which ones do and don't work - they just throw them all up for sale and let support handle it. Some customers get a working card, some don't.

The first letter is 佳 (in Korean, the pronunciation is /ka/) meaning 'beautiful'. The second letter is probably a simplified version of 華 (in Korean, the pronunciation is /hwa/). I think I so this simplified version in some Chinese news footages that supposed to be 中華 (China). This letter also means 'beautiful' but in more ostentatious matter, at least in Korea. The third letter is 宇 (In Korean, the pronunciation is /wu/), meaning a 'house' or 'cosmos'. So, the pronunciation in Korean will be /ka hwa wu/, and the meaning could be a beautiful and splendid house. Probably something similar in Chinese.
I expose somone for selling fake graphic cards and messaged him saying “hi why are you selling fake graphic cards” he messaged me 1 hour later saying “shut the fuck up this is real card no China shit this is real my friend”💀
I hate people who target non tech savvy people to scam their money or ruin someone’s day like one time I saw a counterfeit toy and a grandma bought it for her grandson and all I could think was, I hate that scammer and I also felt bad for the kid.
it doesnt matter, theyre literally labelled as DDR5 on the real stickers too, they didnt make a mistake, look at a real GTX 1050 Ti and you'll see DDR5 written on it
Guys, the disc doesn't matter. It will only install the latest driver like Matt did but that driver won't work as well because the actual gpu is GTS 450. Or yeah maybe you're right, maybe the disc has gts 450 drivers disguised as GTX 1050 drivers. The games will run but badly. Poor kids.
will you really saved me thanks man i know a bit about computers but you know when you get so excited all that knowledge fade away and im not really advanced
I personally think Nvidia should do more to warn people of installing a fake GPU and have the tools in their Driver installer to analyse the GPU and warn users that the firmware does that match the chip and that it has been modded and what the GPU really is and notify the user to seek a refund if it is not as described.
Before I knew what I was doing I bought a scam rx580 for over 200 dollars but the one I got was actually an rx580 but just a 2048sp so basically a Rx 570 named Rx 580
I really hope that anyone buying stuff like this just starts a dispute with ebay and with credit card company. Especially credit card companies attack stuff like this pretty fast and reimburse any false purchases if the reimbursement process is started fast enough.
So like every GPU then? If it’s new, you think a seller is going to rip open a collectors edition Titan Xp Star Wars edition? Nope! What about a normal 1080ti? Well what’s the point when professionally photographed pics exist that show the card in an elegant studio photographed manner. Like your picture at best would look the same after setting up studio lighting. If it’s used then sure, mostly just to show dust or if you cleaned it, but new I’ve never seen a retailer open up a new box to take a crappy photo compared to the stock photos for that particular model.
Also when I buy parts, they have the same stock photo on other websites, because it’s the stock advertisement photo from MSI/EVGA/Sapphire/Gigabyte/XFX/Galax/etc, like that’s what the stock photo is for, the manufacturer just has an album of stock photos for helping out vendors market and sell the cards (so that the manufacturer can sell more money to them, which makes sense for both).
@@RK-zf1jm With that test computer he's using. Yeah. I wouldn't trust it. But I would have done it. Test sistems are for that. Testing. Doubt he has anything valuable there.
I recently got the exact card, work with most games. Its just that you cant update the drivers. Screen goes black if you upgrade it with latest drivers from nvidia
That's not the only one ... three others as well ... and for the most part, they all sucked ... www.mic.com/articles/182331/game-of-thrones-video-games-heres-why-there-arent-any-good-ones
When he said Game of Thrones doesn't have a video game, I looked right at the book under my mousepad. It's literally a guide book for the Game of Thrones 2012 video game lol. Thought that was funny.
As someone who has had to work with older GPUs, the ram is likely not the only issue. Most newer 3d games use newer DirectX versions, and if the feature limit on the card is below the version the game is made for, the game will start to open and then crash.
I was scammed by a guy in California selling counterfeit goods. I used Google Earth to locate his home which had his return address on the shipping box. He was doing business out of his garage in a very upscale gated community. I contacted the Home Owner's Association that ruled over that community and asked if they had business restrictions on private homes. They did, so I turned him in. Immediately after talking to the HOA I called the local police and informed them that this guy was selling counterfeit good out of his garage and told them about the HOA conversation. A few days later I called the police back to see if they did anything. They found that the HOA had gone to his house and found three families of Asians living there. They were renting the home from the owner, which was a big HOA violation! Within two days the families had cleared out the home and garage and left with no forwarding address. Anytime you're scammed by someone don't just say, oh well. Do something about it and try to save others some money or at the very least, report them to Ebay and inconvenience the seller to as large a degree as you can! That's probably the only punishment they'll ever get!
the vga port is legit tho, my old gtx 1060 6gb had one and i used it for my second monitor as it only had a vga port so this shouldnt be really a sketchy point
There IS a 2GB 1050ti, the mobile version of the 1050ti comes with either 4 or 2 GB. At first I thought maybe you ended up with that, but dressed up like a desktop card. Obviously that's not what you got though, after checking the gpu's label.
eBay is SHAMELESS about what they allow to be sold on their site. Also, there are some (many) human beings on this planet who are just plain evil liars.
"and I don't remember the last time I've ever received a driver disk with a video card" Me: *eyes the driver disk I received (and used) with a used XFX RX 570* "Shit" EDIT: The card works fine and is better than my old 8800GT, so that's good. I even had a problem with it that was actually consistent with the RX 570's current deiver version which made games freeze on a single frame only when in fullscreen. Fixed my downgrading a single driver version
Matt - I know it's an old vid but... my best guess for BIOS chip is U4, visible extreme bottom left of shot at 8:14 - Winbond chip - AND NOTE THAT PIN 1 is denoted by the dot/dimple on the chip surface - if you haven't been aligning pin1 correctly with your clip you won't be able to flash. I've never flashed a video card but I flash tens of router EEPROMs ever day.
Thanks for this video. I am currently building my first PC and looking for a "temporary" GPU like a used 1050 ti or 1060 on Ebay to get trough this whole crisis and after the prices kinda normalize again I plan to buy my final GPU. I hope now I don't fall for any of these scams but get a actually real GPU.
You definitely work for this video, I applaud that. And I gonna give you a good tip: mention the sponsor early but shortly, the brand and what business they are in, and tell people that more details is on the end of the video. If you suddenly talk about the sponsor for a minute or two, people will just skip it (they are not ready for it, will likely feel it is intrusive) and the sponsor deserves better. I suggest using "This video is brought to you by ..." to put the sponsor on viewers' good side. At the end of video, wrap the video properly and say once gain that this video is brought to you by ... and continues to details. By then people are ready for it and can choose to watch it if they are interested. Put a proper gap between end of content and the start of sponsor information, it is more professional and respectable that way, which in turn give more positive image for the sponsor. GL
Respect! I'm not saying that this has happened to me but I can imagine kids buying these with saved up money that took weeks to get and then be devastated
that moment when you have a gts 450, its not that bad for esports titles, for example csgo 1080p low gets me @100-120 fps and LoL on 1080p medium 120fps...not bad for something i got for free
Awareness is a great tool. There are a ton of these listed as 1050's and 960's for sale on eBay/Wish/Aliexpress and even seen a couple pop up on craiglist and offerup from time to time. Hopefully the more that people are aware of these posting the better.

The second letter is probably a simplified version of 華 (in Korean, the pronunciation is /hwa/). I think I so this simplified version in some Chinese news footages that supposed to be 中華 (China). This letter also means 'beautiful' but in more ostentatious matter, at least in Korea.
The third letter is 宇 (In Korean, the pronunciation is /wu/), meaning a 'house' or 'cosmos'.
So, the pronunciation in Korean will be /ka hwa wu/, and the meaning could be a beautiful and splendid house. Probably something similar in Chinese.

Questions:
1: Did u try installing the driver using the disk it came with?
2: Did you try installing GTS 450 driver?
No he didn't he was more focused on making video
To get these rip off GPUs running without bios flashing, use the driver disk that came with the GPU.
I would never have known the difference, so thank you very much for this valuable information.
Because people are greedy idiots. Just pay a reasonable price instead of looking for insane deals.
This card has technology from 2022 with the ddr5 memory on it
lmaooooooo
I hope you're joking... there are such things as DDR5 GPUs, theyre simply called GDDR5. GPU memory is not the same as RAM, you're getting it confused.
@@asspotters5208 gddr5, not ddr5..
it doesnt matter, theyre literally labelled as DDR5 on the real stickers too, they didnt make a mistake, look at a real GTX 1050 Ti and you'll see DDR5 written on it
@@asspotters5208 nope, its Gddr5 not Ddr5
Guys, the disc doesn't matter. It will only install the latest driver like Matt did but that driver won't work as well because the actual gpu is GTS 450. Or yeah maybe you're right, maybe the disc has gts 450 drivers disguised as GTX 1050 drivers. The games will run but badly. Poor kids.
🙂 its an unofficial card, it wont work with official drivers, thats why it comes with a driver disc
I was about to buy this, than this video magically popped up in my notifications

will you really saved me thanks man i know a bit about computers but you know when you get so excited all that knowledge fade away and im not really advanced
I personally think Nvidia should do more to warn people of installing a fake GPU and have the tools in their Driver installer to analyse the GPU and warn users that the firmware does that match the chip and that it has been modded and what the GPU really is and notify the user to seek a refund if it is not as described.
It is a brand name called "佳华宇" located in ShenZhen, China

Before I knew what I was doing I bought a scam rx580 for over 200 dollars but the one I got was actually an rx580 but just a 2048sp so basically a Rx 570 named Rx 580
I really hope that anyone buying stuff like this just starts a dispute with ebay and with credit card company. Especially credit card companies attack stuff like this pretty fast and reimburse any false purchases if the reimbursement process is started fast enough.
People need to stop buying fake chinese carp.
how to know if a gpu is fake :
it most probably has photos taken from other sites
So like every GPU then? If it’s new, you think a seller is going to rip open a collectors edition Titan Xp Star Wars edition? Nope! What about a normal 1080ti? Well what’s the point when professionally photographed pics exist that show the card in an elegant studio photographed manner. Like your picture at best would look the same after setting up studio lighting.
If it’s used then sure, mostly just to show dust or if you cleaned it, but new I’ve never seen a retailer open up a new box to take a crappy photo compared to the stock photos for that particular model.
Also when I buy parts, they have the same stock photo on other websites, because it’s the stock advertisement photo from MSI/EVGA/Sapphire/Gigabyte/XFX/Galax/etc, like that’s what the stock photo is for, the manufacturer just has an album of stock photos for helping out vendors market and sell the cards (so that the manufacturer can sell more money to them, which makes sense for both).
that moment when you realize his pc has 48gb ram
i had not realised you could find sold item prices on ebay
Yep, look under the "Advanced" tab by the search bar, or else in the "refine" section. there is a slider for "sold items"
did you try using the driver cd that comes with the box? maybe it will work
Would you trust a cd that came from a bootlegger to run on your system
@@RK-zf1jm Well the card use modified bios. For sure normal driver won't work. the driver in the CD might be modified too so it can work. who knows?
@@itouchgr4ss austin evans did a video doing this and when he used the drivers it work
It won't, as soon as the game tries to use the 2GB VRAM the game will crash
@@RK-zf1jm With that test computer he's using. Yeah. I wouldn't trust it. But I would have done it. Test sistems are for that. Testing. Doubt he has anything valuable there.
I recently got the exact card, work with most games. Its just that you cant update the drivers. Screen goes black if you upgrade it with latest drivers from nvidia

When he said Game of Thrones doesn't have a video game, I looked right at the book under my mousepad. It's literally a guide book for the Game of Thrones 2012 video game lol. Thought that was funny.
It's more of an interactive story like all those crappy Telltale games, but I guess that qualifies.
As someone who has had to work with older GPUs, the ram is likely not the only issue. Most newer 3d games use newer DirectX versions, and if the feature limit on the card is below the version the game is made for, the game will start to open and then crash.
Matt-Game of thrones never had a video game.
Telltale - Am I joke to you?
Cyanide Studios also made one.
I was scammed by a guy in California selling counterfeit goods. I used Google Earth to locate his home which had his return address on the shipping box. He was doing business out of his garage in a very upscale gated community. I contacted the Home Owner's Association that ruled over that community and asked if they had business restrictions on private homes. They did, so I turned him in. Immediately after talking to the HOA I called the local police and informed them that this guy was selling counterfeit good out of his garage and told them about the HOA conversation. A few days later I called the police back to see if they did anything. They found that the HOA had gone to his house and found three families of Asians living there. They were renting the home from the owner, which was a big HOA violation! Within two days the families had cleared out the home and garage and left with no forwarding address. Anytime you're scammed by someone don't just say, oh well. Do something about it and try to save others some money or at the very least, report them to Ebay and inconvenience the seller to as large a degree as you can! That's probably the only punishment they'll ever get!

There IS a 2GB 1050ti, the mobile version of the 1050ti comes with either 4 or 2 GB.
At first I thought maybe you ended up with that, but dressed up like a desktop card.

EDIT: The card works fine and is better than my old 8800GT, so that's good. I even had a problem with it that was actually consistent with the RX 570's current deiver version which made games freeze on a single frame only when in fullscreen. Fixed my downgrading a single driver version
Matt - I know it's an old vid but... my best guess for BIOS chip is U4, visible extreme bottom left of shot at 8:14 - Winbond chip - AND NOTE THAT PIN 1 is denoted by the dot/dimple on the chip surface - if you haven't been aligning pin1 correctly with your clip you won't be able to flash. I've never flashed a video card but I flash tens of router EEPROMs ever day.

You definitely work for this video, I applaud that. And I gonna give you a good tip: mention the sponsor early but shortly, the brand and what business they are in, and tell people that more details is on the end of the video.
If you suddenly talk about the sponsor for a minute or two, people will just skip it (they are not ready for it, will likely feel it is intrusive) and the sponsor deserves better.
I suggest using "This video is brought to you by ..." to put the sponsor on viewers' good side. At the end of video, wrap the video properly and say once gain that this video is brought to you by ... and continues to details. By then people are ready for it and can choose to watch it if they are interested. Put a proper gap between end of content and the start of sponsor information, it is more professional and respectable that way, which in turn give more positive image for the sponsor.
