Have you ever gotten a different GPU than what was on the box?

Did you order a GTX 970 only to get a GTX 960 or 770? or Did you order something like a 770 and get a 970? Tell me your experiences and what did you do when it happened. Did you keep the GPU or did you be honest and returned it for the actual product.

that would have sucked to have received such a powerful graphics card with no PSU in sight powerful enough to use it. (they trolled you xD)

That wouldn't be quite the same jump if I'm not mistaken...

 

I once bought a KitKat chunky (the big ones) and, you know how rarely there's a defect ant it's solid chocolate?  Well it happened with the big one :)
