Ebay has pretty darn good buyer protection. You forgot the link so it's hard to say though

. Check the sellers reputation. That usually tells you enough.

Watch out for fakes on ebay. Not uncommon for people to pull model # stickers and faceplates of higher end cards and bolt them on older/cheaper cards to make a quick buck.

Be sure that it's a "GTX650" and not a "GT650". What they're calling a GT650 is actually a GT640 with 2GB of ddr3 ram and a 256bit bus. Decent for HTPC for the price, but not a GTX650.

I'd be suspicious, that's pretty close to the model I was referring to. Also with ddr3 ram it will perform pretty poorly. Whatever you get you want ddr5 ram.

Yeah, that's a fake. Notice no branding, logos being hidden in the images, GTX650's don't have a 384-bit memory bus.

I'm going to go ahead and say don't buy it. Hong Kong seller with 98.7% rating. 857 negative ratings in the past 12 months, 776 neutral.

Id stay away from this one. Hong Kong, lots of negative replies. Lots of shipping problems, which one should expect if you buy items overseas. Item is too cheap to be legit, description is not accurate.

The title says it is a gtx 560 the description 650ti indescrepancys mean it is a no go.
