That's a fake video card. 1050 Ti's don't have VGA.

Is this Real or Fake? I wanted to build a pc under $900 so I went on amazon and started adding the components to the cart, when I was looking for a graphics card I saw one for really cheap price, so, I of course added the Graphics card to the list.

When I was watching Youtube I came to know about LTT, while I was watching One of LTT video, Linus said these fake graphics cards then I opened amazon and took a screen shot of the GPU and sent it to LTT I haven't got any reply yet <  removed by moderation >

What do you mean?
Graphics cards don't have chipsets like motherboards do. At their core, they're a GPU die, display outputs, and a PCIe edge connector. No chipset involved.

They are not in business for identification of electronics. They make videos to inform you on what to look out for and how to be skeptical when something looks too good to be true.

 

Also removed your email. Posting personal details on the Internet is generally not adviced. That's sure way to get spam and phisting (ie. I'm currently being bombarded by Fine Woodworking). Moving discussion out of the forums also defeats the purpose of having forums in first place.

^^^^ That's my post ^^^^

No? They regularly tell to use forums unless you are either proposing business deal or have issues with store etc.
