Hi guys,

 

Just sharing this GPU that will fry your system.

Be careful and spread it to your families lol. 
Not about being scammed for lesser hardware anymore, but directly having property damaged by the scammers :(

Wow, they took the most notoriously bad graphics cards to ever exist and make them worse, impressive

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

More awareness is always good.this is probably general knowledge for many users here older than a few months on the forum.. but others not so much.

Yeah I'd heard about wrong models, GTS 250 graphics sold as GTX 1060 etc, but you'd still get a working card, even though you totally overpaid it. 
This... This is damn near illegal. It's designed to fry your system, who knows how much the damage they've already dealt amounts up to. 
Poor grandpa buying little Timmy a christmas present :(
