No I bought it from another second hand site. I'll take a look at the PCB, and if it doesn't say what manufacturer it is, I'll try dealing with the seller. Thank you for the help.

Yes I have, it works fine. I thought that as well, but first I need to know the manufacturer of the memory on the card. GPU-Z doesn't show me the manufacturer, maybe this is due to the altered BIOS? Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply. The shopping page clearly says it's a DVI-D to HDMI adapter, it has 10 5 star reviews and it works flawlessly when i connect my pc to other displays using it, so I'm pretty confident the adapter isn't the bad link here. I found out it was a mining card because I asked the seller what was wrong with it, since I couldn't get my drivers to install properly (error 43). He told me it was a mining card, and all I needed to do was patch the drivers. Now it performs fine, but it simply won't work with my LG. Also: the monitor beeps once when i turn it on with the PC connected, something it normally doesn't do.

Hey guys, This is my first post here, so I'm not sure if I'm posting it at the right location. I recently bought a used Dell Optiplex 9020 (i5 4670) for 80 bucks, and threw in an RX 470 for some light 1080p gaming. After some fiddling around with drivers I found out the card was used for mining. I patched the drivers and all seemed set. However, when I connect the PC to my LG 27UD88-W with a DVI-D to HDMI adapter, the monitor doesn't see it as an input. My roommates monitor as well as my TV do recognize it. I know the HDMI port on the LG is isn't faulty, since it recognizes other inputs, such as from my laptop. Does anybody know what is happening, and/or why it is happening? Can this be the result of a wrong BIOS that's flashed on the card? It seems strange to me that other monitors do recognize the input. Thanks!

Hey man, did this eventually end up working? My used-parts ghetto gaming PC is almost complete and I'm thinking of capping everything at 45 FPS, since 60 will be a no-go in most games @1080p maxed settings, and 30 is just a bit too meh. I've been looking all over the internet for this, but nobody seems to have an answer. Thanks!
