On the used market, you can get waaaaay better graphics cards, I recently bought a 1060 3gb for $65. A gtx 650 just isn't a good deal even at that price. Other cards i've bought used: Rx 580 8gb - $75 Rx 560 4gb - $50 GTX 970 - $80 GTX 770 - $45 If the option is available, local deals are always preferable to online purchases when you're trying to build a truly budget system.

@RsBlackleo86

@@DenianWriter The only problem with cards like that there is a gamble with longevity because the gtx 1060 and rx 580 cards have been used for mining, you have a risk of getting a card that is at the end of it's life. As for the local deals, that is a good point and should almost always be your first option especially since it helps with e-waste. There are sometimes issues with local deals though, such as dealing with possible property theft being re-sold, seller doesn't know what they are selling, price gouging in rural areas where people don't care about computers and such. Good points though, I do applaud you!

I laughed when I saw the VGA port. The 2000 series doesn't have the RAMDAC anymore, so it's literally impossible to get native VGA output from those chips. In order to have VGA output, they'd need to convert a digital output to analog separately.

On The PCB under the Cooler it says GK107 ^^ That takes away the Fun a bit :D 2:38

You should check out one of those used mining 1060's with no Io that need modded drivers , they're going for around 35 $ which is actually a great deal assuming you can get it working

One of my favourite things to do with these scam cards is looking at the ports and trying to work out which generation of Nvidia it's actually based on from them... Soon as this one came up I was like, HDMI, VGA and DVI? that's gotta be a 6th gen

Nice tht you got most of your money back, and you managed to get it flashed to an actual GTX 650. If they actually sold these as GTX 650s at competitive prices, they'd actually sell a lot more of these GPUs. Also, the car radio that they said they'd send isn't great: I've seen that exact same model before (in fact I have one for a portable boombox project) and whilst it would be OK as a cheap portable boombox (when housed in a suitable enclosure, with suitable speakers) I wouldn't bother putting it inside a car, not unless (a) the car has no radio at all or (b) you intend on swapping out a better radio for the purposes of selling the aforementioned car.

I bought one of these from corn in BC, Canada. The shipping charges and time was right. It was advertised as a 650 and I think I got for $35cad total with $15 of that being shipping. Only card I have with a box lol. Kineology or something similar was the brand. Works. Runs wow, Minecraft and rust (kinda).

There's something cathartic about watching videos about PC hardware with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon music, gotta say.

I've been looking at older GPUI for a while now, and when I saw the silver plastic shroud I already knew that it was a 600-series nVidia. And I really wish I could find such scams, but haven't had much luck. xD They are decent Win7-era gaming card and are perfect for retro-WinXP gaming as well.
