Forsa 1050. Should i trust it?

[Askingcarpet]

So, i'm getting a second hand i7 3770 and 1050 (both tested running) but i found out the gpu was forsa branded and i was wondering: Is forsa a brand to be trusted? should i get just the cpu and buy the gpu somewhere else?

Honestly, I wouldn't get a GPU from any brand outside of the main four: MSI, Gigabyte, Asus, EVGA.

 

It looks like a fairly decent card, you can always sell it if you're not satisfied, right?

 

One thing I would mention is that you will need an LGA 1155 board to use the i7-3770(going by your signature, you wouldn't be able to use it in your current rig).

First off, i kinda agree, But what about zotac/pny/palit/xfx? i heard good things especially zotac since i own one

Second, i definitely can. The b75m is a 3rd gen board that supports the 3770 with even the stock bios i obviously checked that lol

Oh? I must've missed that.

 

I don't particularly go for Zotac cards personally, PNY is kinda eh, and Palit I just don't like.

Yeah but those cards are kinda known for at least being real. Outside from those brands you could just get one of those bios modified older cards or duds. i def would never buy from an unknown brand, which is why i asked about forsa. haven't heard of them outside very old cards

I've never heard of them at all, one of the reasons I wouldn't trust them.

 

I would say go for it, and make a profit if you don't like it.

maybe i will. Still, i'm gonna check on other sellers (this one and a couple more have a great reputation in the sales group i'm in and have their own "stores") because i might just get a 1050ti for the same price

thanks for the help though, it's like the 3rd time you solve one of my threads lol
