A Chinese "GTX 750 Ti" for $45 - eBay SCAM?

  • 21
About a month and a half ago I ordered a brand new, Chinese “GTX 750 Ti” for around $45 on eBay. Now I often saw these 750 Tis in my recommended purchases when I browsed ebay simply because I buy components in the price range often, but I usually disregard these recommendations because they sound too good to be true. I bit the bullet. It’s relatively inexpensive and if I got scammed, I wasn’t losing too much money. If I didn’t, then it’s an awesome find that I could recommend to all of my viewers. Is

Checked the video and you can always get a refund from eBay for fake products. So there's nothing really to worry about. Sometimes you have to destroy the product but if you are smart you can keep them. For that particular card they just edited a 550 Ti BIOS and changed some strings with a hex editor to look like a 750 Ti. Nothing special, there is no checksum verification for those cards so anyone can do that and flash back and the card will boot without any issues.

The guy got a refund as suspected and he will do another video with a fake 960. Probably it's the same thing and you can reflash a stock VBIOS from TechPowerUp if you want the card to show up accurately what it is in GPU-Z. But for that money it's not even worth getting these cheap cards.


my cybercafe owner does order it from china. and he find the trusted dealer to make the deal at that price. and it has been shipped 2 week. the item has been delivered. maybe they are selling cheap because they got lots of it and being upgraded.
