PSA : Don't take your chances with Wish.com GPUs, there's potentially maliciously made GPUs that fry your system !!!

 

 

I personally never understood the appeal of Wish.com, eBay and AliExpress are both more trust worthy and cheaper (and I'm aware there are scams on all platforms).

    I've only bought from AliExpress for small things like cable adapters I couldnt find anywhere else (for a reasonable price)

     

    Not sure I'd buy PC main component hardware from there (ever).

    Yeah, I wouldn't buy on Aliexpress, but I know people do. And buying on eBay isn't an issue if you know what you're doing.

     

    But the fact that this happened on Wish doesn't mean those fake GPUs aren't elsewhere, I know people are buying these in the hope of getting a free GT GPU. But if it fries your motherboard, then it's now far from being free and I know I wouldn't get one even if it was free.
