Thats actually a counterfeit GTX650. Its actually a lower chipset with its ID faked to look like a GTX650 in system specs. The new drivers won't work with it.

I highly recommend replacing it, poor quality hardware like that can actually cause damage to the rest of your system.

I dont even think thats a real gtx 650, the specs certainly aren't right. They say it has GDDR3 memory the real gtx 650 has GDDR5. I would get something like GPU-Z to verify if that is indeed a gtx 650. I linked it below.

^^They are correct. Here's a thread about the warning. There was even an earlier Tom's link in this link.

Pretty shocking that a 97.7% seller rating is selling this junk. One buyer disassembled it and found out the chip was a 9600GT! Stupid Chinese fake junk. The seller should know better than that, especially considering these have been sold for at least two years now like this just based on the above link.
