Influx of fake GPUs into US Market. Why is this a thing? (Bootleg GPUs & eBay Scamming)

Someone needs to write about this... I did a google search and there's no 'official' news other than people asking if this is real...

I'm really considering it. I have an old AMD 880fx mobo sitting around with an athlon in it. I think this test would be a proper send off for them.

This looks like a GeForce 9000 series OC model (by the original manufacture), and has only DirectX 10

Probably a 9600, as the outputs are the same as the 9600, same for the memory type (GDDR3) and also has the 6pin power connector.

'It's not geforce original  . The maximum capacity of game is 10-15G, can support DX10,the big game need work on DX11,so can't work

Package Includes:

 

1 x Graphic
1 x the power connection cable
 
Note : it is not geforce original, It was produced by Taiwan graphic manufactory which has 10 years experience on this.
And it's very good quality and has a wonderful praise by our customers.'
 
LOL.. :P

Now there's something for LTT to benchmark, if it even comes close to a regular card I'll be buying. Nothing like a little competition to lower the price for us. As long as it works like the brand names I'm in.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
