If a hot girl approaches you and offers to buy you a drink, be careful, you might wake up on ice with your GPU core and memory missing.
Lol😅
I love it whilst they strip gpu and vram, due to sanctions ,really good price for a replacement pcb if the pads not stripped
Or, it could be James O'Keefe...
haha, that's a good one!!🔥🔥
Hahahahahahahahahahah best analogy ever 😂😂😂😂
The eBay ads specifically says no core and no memory
99.9% of buyers DO NOT READ the description.
Description is not a fine print of legal terms yet people still dont read it.
There are people who even buy "box only" ads thinking it's a gpu.
@@northwestrepair another problem is that the description is not readily shown on the mobile eBay app. You have to click on a drop down to get it to appear.
I don't mean to sound rude but... are Americans really this dumb?!
I mean, a 4090 for $300?!
Even if the ad doesn't explicitly mention the lack of core and vRAM, I still wouldn't touch it. That's just too good to be true.
@@ryanmcgraw1743 another reason to never use mobile device for shopping or any money involved activity.
Of course he didn't get scammed... HE JUST CANT READ.
Probably is not really highlighted in the AD, no one would buy them if the ad was completely transparent. Ebay seems to be fine with deceptive ads of this nature, like the old ad trick selling a box its predatory and not everyone is intelligent or careful all the time
Weren't people buying posters of PlayStation 5's thinking they were actually getting systems?
I remember when people were listings for an "Xbox box" on eBay. Guess what people thought they were buying...
it was for the auto buying bots during the gpu mining crisis. i remember one listing even warned human buyers that it was specifically targeting bots.
@dracolnyte yep there was MANY MANY listing's that said "for Bots only"
They were selling pdf‘s from 3080s on eBay for 1000$ too. Covid times…
Confucius said, you cannot fix what is not there 😅
Tony, I've been watching your channel for about a year. Let me tell you something, some of these cards that are sent to you and you get them fixed. You are a miracle worker. Really. No smoke.
I seen recently extremely sus 4090 offers on eBay. One for 30-50€, but over 400€ shipping costs, and the seller has no reviews and created their account on the same month
I had remembered someone tried similar thing with Xbox 360 once.
it's because shipping costs are non ebay-taxated i think
@@Justgreen89925 tax and fees are calculated from the entire cost of an order, price+shipping
To be fair the ones I've seen seller does say no core or vram parts only
love that the paste is still there but the core is missing lol
why bother wiping it off?
He paid almost the proper price for it. 200$ for the PCB and the big chunky cooling assembly + shipping seems apropriate. :D
It clearly says even in the title no GPU:
ZOTAC NVIDIA RTX 4090 TRINITY OC 24G housing/stock fan/Coolers/Heatsink NO GPU
🤣 confirmed decription says clearly "No serial number removed! Not actual gpu just the cooler, and the box. "🤣😂
LMAO, I love people like this. They dive on things without reading, then often act like a victim.
Bro really thought he was saving $1,000.
Technically, he’s still saving money but he never really owned a RTX 4090 so really he actually lost but in his mind he still winning he hasn’t crossed over to the $2000 mark yet so in his mind he still winning
In my place there's no 4090 with $1200-$1300 range....
1,500*
Subscribed for a couple years, so interesting to see the products I sell end up here. lol
What do you use the cores and memory for?
@@diebygaming8015 Repairing other cards probably.
@@diebygaming8015 Smuggling cores to China N. Korea or Russia is much easier than the entire PCB and cooler.
@@diebygaming8015 Since in China it's hard to get by server GPUs like the H100, one practice is to take the core from a 4090 and put it on a custom board with a lot of VRAM added for data centers. No idea if that's what happened to this core, just one possibility.
wtf?
that is the new slim/light version of a 4090
The reason a lot of these are for sale, is because in china they designed their own single slot pcb and they use the 4090 core and ram, The can put a lot of smaller pcbs in a server for AI, these housings are too large..
always read the whole ad.
If something seems too good to be true, it almost always is. But people can't help themselves and think they can get a deal for $300.
An adage as old as time itself... If its too good to be true, then it is.
If it SEEMS too good to be true. You are all morons. If it IS too good to be true, then why are you buying it!?
not always, but usually. recently got $100k off a purchase i've been wanting to make for over 14 years, my cost was only $18k. far too be too good to be true, but it actually was true, and life changing.
@@Cara.314 99.9% usually for people who doesn't have 14 years to spare
well, think it this way: no core, no problem. No VRAM No artiffact. What else could you possibly want?
Well, that's a no fix 😂
"can you repair my GPU without my GPU?"
🤣🙃
it's a 404, not a 4090
404
4090 not found
If he couldn't bother read the description over 300$, probably don't mean that much to him. The way I think about this - with all the 40x cracking, leaving young orphaned cores and ddrs, thank god for the Chinese selling pcbs.
Chinese guys selling cards without (most likely dead core) and a bunch of guys with cards that have core, but PCB is dead. A match made in (nvidia) heaven.
We need a app to match these folks up(for a small price of course)
I was yelling at my phone the whole time you were taking the cooler off "I bet there's no core!" 😂😂😂
well the good point of that card is that it wont get absurdly hot hahahaha
so you are the reason i saved gpus at repair shop i work for
Here in Brazil we use the “hihi levei vantagem" (lol i took advantage)” meme for buyers like this
If you know what you're doing you can get a lot of good stuff off of eBay. People that say eBay is nothing but junk are people that don't know how to use eBay. Sometime unusual key words is your friend.
FBI open up
But there's no one at home.😂
I'm confused why your thumbnail for the video said "This is NOT a Scam!" -- and then you proceeded to show us the scam (which may not have been a scam if the Ebay seller said that he had removed those components). It just seems like you could have put "Scam?" instead.
Because the people he's trying to reach won't click on this is a scam apparently so he's hoping a little reverse psychology might do it on the video title
iam comparitivelly happy that the parts of ebay listings i seem to persistantly miss is "seller is away for 3 weeks your item will be delayed" ,or "signed for delivery" (no one home all day 5 days a week)
Great video!
"Whoever does not know how to be a good accountant in his business will wander like a blind man in the dark at random, and he will not escape great losses"
Awesome video
if your 1080ti get error on all vram chips with almost same amount with black screen , is that card need reball for the gpu ?
Saw a local listing for one for 500 but it was also missing internals, showed leds but didnt ever post
hey, they're good to use as a host for a broken pcb card.
No refund I guess.
Sure there was a story a while ago about Chinese stripping the chips from 4090 for AI.
Install couple transistors as GPU core.
"This one will blow your mind..." 😂
Hey , do u get 4090 with the melting pins issue often>? Is that a big issue !!!?
What if I had something like this where it is missing the core and mems + another one with burnt connector/cracked pcb. Would it be possible to take the core and mems then reball it on this one?
It is cheaper to buy new
Yeah, this is exactly when this PCB will be nice deal. If you are actually able to do so and not kill card in process.
300$, pretty expensive paperweight
provided everything else works on the card, can he get another 4090 with a broken pcb but with all the cores and memory intact and put them together?
Do you upgrade Video memory? is it worthit to ugrade 3060ti fe memory?
Thumbnail: THIS IS NOT A SCAM
Video: "I just want to bring this scam to people's attention..."
What the frak?
Buy tech gear ⚙️ from the maker. Buy new gear ⚙️ as well. I have been screwed before. Never, never ever again.
Ive bought a lot of used computer parts, made decent money doing it, If the ad says for parts only, No GPU- dont expect a GPU- you will be fine.
Somebody stole the core!
I knew what it was thanks to you the last time this happened
1:06 I bet there is no GPU chip and memory inside 😂
2:16 Hahaha I was right 😂
I bought an 7900xt for $400 for a broken screw, it was the easy repair i ever did 😂😂😂😂
NRF might be able to fix it 🙂
Meanwhile dude could've got a brand new working 3060 for that money if he just read the description
I heard of 4090 without cores going around. So, what's the purpose? Is it because is easier to smuggle the core and the VRAM to china that way? And where do they install the core and the VRAM in china?
Make 4090s that nicely fit in a server to be used as AI accelerators -- plain old PCIe power input on the back side, normal height matching PCIe bracket, 2-slot blower style cooler.
Maybe they even manage to run memory in clamshell mode for 48GB, but that's just a guess given 22GB mods of 2080 Ti exist
technology bans from the
USA are working out well aren't they.
They’re selling it for parts.
@@niter43yes, thats exactly whats happening. There were quite a few articles talking about this a while back.
I do wonder where the original core and memory went? Maybe it was put on some drone's targeting system.
What repair attempt?
Hello, can you help me?, I have an RTX 2070 with a code 43 problem in Windows and it shows artifacts, I run the mats and it does not detect any defective memory module, but when I run the mods it gives me the following error code; Error Code = 000000000539 (NVRM Generic falcon error) I have no idea what that error code means
Curious why someone would remove the core and components?
I know what this is gonna be even before I click. and I'm not disappoint
Lol. Can you post a follow-up video with the customer ?
all he needs now is the core socket, core and the memory
Stopped at 1,12. Saw missing bracket, so is the core missing?
And memory gone.
I Bought My 3060 12GB And It Was 720Euros, But It Was 2 Years AGo Or Something ! :) Still KickingHARD !
Well... Maybe he received what he really paid for
You get what you pay for . Lucky for that it was only a few hundred bucks .
can Nvidia or whatever sell the core and ram separate? people like you could buy the parts and repair cards?
Memory is already sold separately, nvidia are not ones making it anyway. Cores...well you *CAN* buy them too, but i doubt that they will even check on your offer if it is less then 100 cores.
its cheaper to buy a new card.
Well at least it would be good to replace one with a broken board need the slot
it’s just a heavy pricey paperweight for casuals
you could hook up the RGB lights and fans, mount that babby in a case and use integrated graphics and post pics all over the the interweb - for gamer clout
while watching this vid I got an anxiety attack because your work mat has a slight discoloration on the upper right side. I had fallen asleep while my comp running last night and thought i had some burn in on my monitor. lol
At least those cards won't burn out any time soon ! ;p
You always bl;ow my mind ROFL
Ill buy one
Would it be possible to aquire those missing components and how much would they cost?
Not much...as long as it isnt core. GPU core is like more then half of cost of card itself.
you can get the memory at a decent price- the cores are not cheap and last I heard you had to buy in bulk for the new cores
0:53 Why is that a red flag? Personally I never take these peels off my tech (PC, TV, watches, phones etc.), unless they start falling off on their own.
China has an embargo that NGreedy could not sell AI chips, So what China did was to Import a shit ton of 4090`s and striped the core and other parts. So maybe some one got greedy and started selling the parts to recoup the costs.
Sorry for gramer, I`m tired. (BTW great channel)
This is the best wireless gpu.
yeah, its not a scam same as people selling boxes because in description they write box only eh, leave bad feedback to people like this and report it as well for scam style
wondering how is the owner 's reaction after watching the video
I saw this video with no audio or CC, Hummm but all that I can say is $1 USD RTX 3060 from temu was not a real GPU
Now we know the price of the GPU and memory chips
*face palm*, the fact that people believe a 4090 is being sold for that cheap is stupid. The fact that they actually buy it is even more stupid. I noticed scams on amazon where the price was too good to be true and saw the "shipped by/sold by" was a random chinese name. DO NOT BUY!
What are they doing with the raw cores and memory?
AI machine deep learning.
I get the feeling the core was dead and a shop took the memory to re-use and sold the cooler, PCB, etc for parts- or its being used on enterprise boards for AI stuff, Or maybe they are building a Voltron type robot to protect the planet from aliens
it looks not like a graphics card but by some sort of AC unit
Ouch!!
Better than factory
eBay ad states clearly, no core, no memory.. duh! Poor guy no. Scammer, yes!
Please show us your invoice for a damaged 4090 even damage @300$. I could not find anything close to that price
$200-$300 Paper Weight
Wonder If Alex ever received any like this?
i would love to see his reaction when he watch this video "eish"
nice
What a bargain!
Could of gotten a working 6700XT for that much. 😢
At least Ebay ads specifically say their Pokemon cards are not fake. Everything else, take your lucky shot.
To be honest, there's no "cousin" here
why do they take out the Chip and Vram
Make own boards for rack cooled AI farms.
Recup cost for bulky and over-marketed ROG stuff.
Best guess.
Asking for a "friend"(in this case: cousin), ofc.
Too bad NVIDIA doesn't sell replacement cores or memory... Waiting for that right to repair legislation to take effect
Although if this was me I probably would try to stop them from sending the card in to avoid charging them for a repair attempt
It's actually my cousin's card. He got it on Facebook marketplace for $900 which I told him was a little too good to be true.. It was not a $300 eBay card.
