Fake video card GForce GTX 1050ti...Downgrade bios to GTS 450...

Ok that card is shot, bin it.
 
Oh well it cost me nil except my time.

Just a thought does the bios need to be told there's something in the PCie slot?

No, you can attempt to get an spi flasher and do it that way but it may not justify cost
 
It's peaked my interest now, but v busy with other stuff ATM so may well put it on the back burner. Is spi flasher the thing mentioned above?
 
Go online or search through this forum for it

You have a SPI flasher try other files should I even try a 545 or 5:50 anything like that
 
China is biggest source of fraud and forged products.
I have advice for China government, When you wake up at the morning, before you decide to teach others what to do think about this... If China gone from Planet Earth percent of counterfeits, frauds, forged products, clones, etc will drop for half worldwide at least. Only China is source of half frauds on Planet Earth and their government should shame and think about that more then about other things. Before they fix such problems and stop to steal others propriety and profit on them China can't be taken seriously and be competitive with America.
I can bet stolen knowledge, western propriety and products play big role in profit of China generally and government close eyes on that. Looks like China can't afford to live in world of original products and build huge penalties for anyone who try to clone, counterfeit or profit on any way from frauds.

Usually it is someone on Ebay selling fake cards or misrepresented cards but a few years ago they were even selling them on Newegg in the Marketplace section. Usually it's from a company based in China. Newegg didn't take them down for several weeks even after several people complained that they were fake. A bargain isn't always a bargain.

Yep there is ebay, wish, aliexpress, and others. But to sell this to some kid a card or something similar they can kill them. I rly try to make this card work even make some mods to have better coling system and card almost start to burn. There is need to say to ppl that this things is danger. Not only in my case but they sell rly bad stuff. I dont know why EU or SAD and other countrys dont do somthing about this. China just send us back junk that early years she get free and even paid to recive from us. Bloody hell.
