damric :

ok thanks alot man because i almost spent my money on it.
can you suggest any legit card in a $50 card range. something that not too shabby

jbrown156 :

The card is real and the seller has a pretty decent rating. The price is suspect, that and the fact that it ships from Hong Kong. Having said that, I wouldn't touch it.

I agree with damric, it's fake.

Never seen a 650 with 384bit VRAM, and.... it's from Hong Kong. I steer clear of anything from China on ebay, lot's of frauds. (nothing against China or it's people... just seen a lot of e-cons for various products sold from there)

It's a scam. A GTX 650 is a 128-bit GPU, not 384-bit. And it has only 1 GB of VRAM, not 2 GB.

jbrown156 :

Yes. Look for used stuff in the overclock.net marketplace or over at techpowerup. They are much safer than ebay.

Joseph DeGarmo · May 30, 2014

Here's a real legitimate GTX 650 for less than $100.

It's fake. Up top it says it's a GTX650. Down in the description it says it's a GTX650Ti.

damric :

i am from jamaica so i dont know if tech powerup or the other one mention do shipping to here so i will have to search for different options. i dont want to pass $50 or $60 at max so please help and dont suggest anything higher please.

Joseph DeGarmo · May 30, 2014

Looks like some custom-built graphics card using some cheap toy fan that does not work. And the specs were intentionally printed wrong. Is there any way we can report the seller to the authorities?

And for $60, this is the best you can do.

jbrown156 :

It's weaker than a GTX 650, but at least it's better than a GT 630. It should run Battlefield 3 fine on mid to high settings.

The card is a fake i am 100 % sure of that
a friend of mine bought a Chinese fake Nvidia Geforce 770 gtx
we checked the GPU number it said G92-286-B1 that means a
Geforce 9800 gt
all of those chit Chinese fake cards called 650gtx ,770gtx, 780gtx and so on
is fake
they have old 9600gt or 9800gt GPU on them
there bois is fake everything is fake

all of those shit Chinese fake cards called 650gtx ,770gtx, 780gtx and so on
is fake
they have old 9600gt or 9800gt GPU on them
there bios is fake everything is fake
what you are getting if you buy this card is a poorly working
Nvidia geforce 9800gt or 9600gt
these Chinese shit cards are manufactured by some technical criminal gangsters in china
they wan´t you to chip the card back if you complain and they will not refund you

Gt Ll · Feb 18, 2015

Another problem with these fake GeForce-GTX650 card is that they comes with no drivers and GTX650 graphic drivers don´t work
because they does not have GTX650 GPU
you have to download many old 9500 gt or 9800 gt driver till you found some drivers that work

The sellers rating on AliExpress are also fake they are deleting bad feedback or the buyer have no chance to give bad feedback

is this card real or is it fake ?
