i was being serious with that question, alot of times chinese get coolers off 970`s and higher end crads and slap them on older cards and some times change the bios to show it as a 970 or higher end card, 

 

 

anyways try uninstall the driver and reinstall if that doesnt help contact asus, are you getting performance that are relative to 970`s ? if so theres nothing to worry about
