It looks like knockoff card to me. There's no evga logo on it.

Well the title says EVGA (doesn't look like an EVGA card to me), also says it's a 1660 Ti, but the description says 1660, and EVGA's smallest 1660 Ti looks like this:

It looks like a scam, but maybe it's one pulled from a prebuilt? EVGA doesn't sell a card that looks even vaguely like this card and none of the model numbers appear to correspond to any 1660ti or 1660. Probably another scam like the 1050Ti or 960 scams that have been going around, ill try and find what card it is though.

Think I figured it out, the UL listed product code thing matches a MSI GT 420:image.png.4160bcb1bdd4f66f24f7268ec26c8699.png

It also matches an HP Omen desktop, which I'd guess is what it was pulled from.

Completely overlooked that, it also doesn't line up with the I/O of a 420 (no VGA), so the search continues!

I bet it’s an OEM 1660 or 1660ti. The listing being confused as to which card this is, and the price being so high, makes this a pretty bad deal in my eyes.

Looks legit to me.

It can just be a EVGA OEM card.

No old GPU has DP port anyway.

All those fake cards have VGA, pretty much tells you how old it is.

hmmm my Quadro 600 (2010) and FX580 (2009) both have DP, I assume you mean no old gaming GPUs have Displayport :)

Oh i didn't notice that, yeah DP is pretty new in 2010.

It's getting mainstream in 2015.
