  • Hello everyone and welcome to a new Budget Builds Video where today we'll be taking a look at the next generation of Scam Graphics Cards, and i know what you're all thinking now. "But Budget Builds havent you done this before? hasn't everyone done this before?" well No....See this is the next generation of scam cards.
    Whereas the last generation was old, clunky, and easy to spot out, the first revision of these cards seems ot be polished, seems to work, and most importantly would catch you out.
    So join me today as we take a look at this £35 RTX, and find out just whats going on with these cards, and why they're so clever.

      And it was written in a very awkward proportion. While I am not a forensic graphologist, as a native Chinese speaker/writer I would say it was written by a non-native user mimicking the logogram; young children in the progress of learning how to write this basic character might write it in this manner, but those tapering horizontal strokes showed speed not achievable by young learners.

      @RsBlackleo86 4 года назад

      @waffeltek What card are you proposing? I am just saying that this is a decent option for the price/availability because it seems to be decently refurbished assuming they take older cards and replace the board.

    • @RsBlackleo86
      @RsBlackleo86 4 года назад +5

      @waffeltek That's definitely a decent option, I wouldn't say it's five times more powerful though. I am just saying for a card you wouldn't have to clean out and renew yourself this is not a bad option assuming it has the correct bios.

      @DenianWriter 4 года назад +6

      On the used market, you can get waaaaay better graphics cards, I recently bought a 1060 3gb for $65. A gtx 650 just isn't a good deal even at that price.
      Other cards i've bought used:
      Rx 580 8gb - $75
      Rx 560 4gb - $50
      GTX 970 - $80
      GTX 770 - $45
      If the option is available, local deals are always preferable to online purchases when you're trying to build a truly budget system.

    • @RsBlackleo86
      @RsBlackleo86 4 года назад +2

      @@DenianWriter The only problem with cards like that there is a gamble with longevity because the gtx 1060 and rx 580 cards have been used for mining, you have a risk of getting a card that is at the end of it's life. As for the local deals, that is a good point and should almost always be your first option especially since it helps with e-waste. There are sometimes issues with local deals though, such as dealing with possible property theft being re-sold, seller doesn't know what they are selling, price gouging in rural areas where people don't care about computers and such. Good points though, I do applaud you!

    Also, the car radio that they said they'd send isn't great: I've seen that exact same model before (in fact I have one for a portable boombox project) and whilst it would be OK as a cheap portable boombox (when housed in a suitable enclosure, with suitable speakers) I wouldn't bother putting it inside a car, not unless (a) the car has no radio at all or (b) you intend on swapping out a better radio for the purposes of selling the aforementioned car.

    i had a i5-2400 with a 650 TI windforce pc for a while. Ran Battlefield 1 at 1080p medium/low settings just fine. the 6 series is still valid for low 1080/720P as long as u get a 2gig card

    One of my favourite things to do with these scam cards is looking at the ports and trying to work out which generation of Nvidia it's actually based on from them... Soon as this one came up I was like, HDMI, VGA and DVI? that's gotta be a 6th gen

    I bought one of these from corn in BC, Canada. The shipping charges and time was right. It was advertised as a 650 and I think I got for $35cad total with $15 of that being shipping. Only card I have with a box lol. Kineology or something similar was the brand. Works. Runs wow, Minecraft and rust (kinda).

    Only 65W?=The first thing I was thinking, was GT 640 if not less. At 6:31, I really like that you did PC Halo MCC. ;) At 8:58, for SOTTR, it's like what I expect from a 2008 or 2009 video card, actually wondering if LCDs don't take kindly to dropping the resolution to that and are better off with a CRT...

    You should check out one of those used mining 1060's with no Io that need modded drivers , they're going for around 35 $ which is actually a great deal assuming you can get it working

  • @romanpul
    @romanpul 4 года назад

    Before even watching beyond 2:18, just before you are taking the card apart. It says on the PCB GK107D45B -> GTX650 1GB. Hope I got this right xD

    I've been looking at older GPUI for a while now, and when I saw the silver plastic shroud I already knew that it was a 600-series nVidia.
    And I really wish I could find such scams, but haven't had much luck. xD
    They are decent Win7-era gaming card and are perfect for retro-WinXP gaming as well.

    Funny how that Kepler GPU actually was named correctly on that pcb. GK107 is actually the GPU used on a GTX650...

  • @Salty_Nutella

    You can literally see the code for the Kepler architecture "GK" on the PCB LOL

    Is there's any way to mod the BIOS for fun?

    • @BudgetBuildsOfficial
      @BudgetBuildsOfficial  4 года назад

      It'll just crash when it's over 2GB of VRAM Usage. There are some mods. But I don't really dabble with them all too much. I just tend to flash things back to stock.

  • @WouterVerbruggen

    When it's actually visibly put on the PCB there's a (relatively) ancient GK107 on it 😂

  • @steventechno
    @steventechno 4 года назад

    I'm more impressed with the stability more than anything. usually these modified GPU's are unstable and tend to give an unusable experience, yet here, it ran nearly as well as it would have on it's original FW.
    Fun fact: I owned a 2GB variant of this GPU. it was decent for lower-mid tier gaming, but not really anything you'd want to do any modern AAA gaming on. still fantastic for indies, Fortnite, Rocket League, Roblox, Source games, emulation, etc . not terrible, but not great.
    I kinda figured it could have been a GTX 650 just from the PCB and heatsink cover. looked too familiar.

    @MadIIMike 4 года назад

    Those coolers have been around for a while, similar looking ones (heatsink might have been different) were used by KFA2/Galaxy (now Galax = Palit)... but the fakers also used them on other fake cards for years, I think they started with the fake cards in mass production with the "750Ti" which were some low end 200 series.
