Wow! Just Wow! How stupid are people today? LOL I mean really? It has got to be the water! For F's Sake that fan looks glued to the plastic made to look like a heatsink.

I'm embarrassed for Newegg. GT 610 for $96.58. Marked down from$365.50 but Free Shipping is available.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4U71H89717

So we got a hybrid AMD/Nvidia GPU here hu? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OHHHH MAAAANNNNN! What gets me is where are the warehouses elaborately set up to make fake GPU's ? Really?

Champ · May 9, 2014

Hummm....maybe this is why I can't get my 4670k past 4.4 :confused:

That first one looks like a knock off of a Galaxy branded GT640. CLEARLY a fake. Here's the original for reference...

LOL they even put the fan shroud on backwards!

Well they almost got by on this one... the specs were right until they listed it as being PCI-E 2.0 rather than 3.0

GreiverBlade · May 9, 2014

well they are also on Ebay but with the Ebay "customer protection" i guess if somebody with a bit of computer knowledge will spot the fake and put a reclamation, the seller is forced to refund the items (with sadly most of the time shipping back at the expense of the buyer) unless it was a fake company,which is unlikely on Ebay iirc, they check and confirm the identity, well not like Ricardo.ch who need the confirmation via a code sent by regular mail (not email)

the worst is for customers who know nothing and think they got the right product.

next time don't triple post and... they don't refer it as a AMD/ATI Geforce 640 but label it as a 640SP, SP being the initial of Shader Processors
so basically it would be a half 7870/R7 270/270X

but that's also the catch: only the 7770ghz/8760 OEM and the R7 version of it have 640SP and they never was one card with 640SP with ATI generation

http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2553/radeon-r7-250x.html

funny how every card linked here are out of stock... maybe Newegg is doing something, i doubt piece of crap like that sell at the price they put it ... i mean 338€83 for a faked 7770 c'mon .... even a buyer of a GT640 4gb DDR3 is less stupid than that ... i have a seller in list on ricardo.ch ... trying to sell a 7750/7770(since he only mention 7700 serie) for 200chf start price :roll:

basically someone who know nothing to what he sell or someone who try to get a fool for profit... i hate the second type

(edit: he's the 1st type ... ahahah just confirmed now)

I can't stand either, I hate anyone that takes advantage of people. But I suppose that is one of the small prices we pay for a wonderful and free internet. Hopefully people can be warned in time.

How stupid are people today?

Did you hear about the update that makes your iPhone waterproof and how many people fell for it and actually dropped their phones in water after updating.
You should ask them this question.

I also heard that some people on Reddit heard that they can charge their iPhones in a microwave....
So yeah, some people do fall for this.

""Plane Mode" isn't working... i broke my phone!" Anyone? ( urban legend ? ) :roll:

rtwjunkie · May 10, 2014

Um...i do hope they actually tell us the results. Despite this getting by Newegg, and having some less than knowledgeable people handling marketplace postings, I have faith in them as a corporation to fix this.

Wow! that is Amazing! No wonder we are loosing our freedoms if people are that brain dead.

LOL I still like the Pop the hood GPU HAHAHA! Someone should have got that just for a pure novelty.

Newegg must not be looking into it very hard, The fakes are still up on the site! They should pull them immediately! This is absolute insanity! Corporations just do not care anymore! I order my stuff from Newegg, I like Newegg, But people with less knowledge of PC parts should not have to worry about buying fake junk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they are up but shown out of stock or non available so they took them out mostly (at last for me they all show like that... ) i guess for removing them from the listing it might take a bit more time than just disabling them from being sell able

ah that one is up (1st one of every link shown here i get with: Available
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4U71H85338
at last the price droped ... still its a crap price for a crap like that ... eheheh

who want to pay 94.58€ for a Nvidia 9500GT labeled as a GT640

(better take a GT610 if you want a GPU on the perf level of a 9500GT... mmhh even a bit higher bahahaha)

even my MSI R7 240 who cost ~50€ ... ah Chinese fake market ... what a wonder
