GTX 670 showing as GRID K520

Hi,

This morning I discovered that my pc wasn't showing anything on the display. I then tried clearing the cmos and try again however that didn't work. So then I tried using onboard graphics with my 670 still in the pcie slot with power.

I to my surprise discovered it then worked. So I went into the bios to change from onboard graphics to pcie however it still only worked with onboard. Upon going into device manager in windows 10 I have discovered that my GTX 670 is showing as an NVIDIA GRID K520 which I believe to be a variant of the 670's chip. Does anyone know what has caused this and ideally how to fix it? Any help is much appreciated thanks!
