Fake Graphics card??!?!

[Athlonite]

yeah i kinda figured that out like a week or 2 ago BUT MSI MAKES IT TO COMPLACATED TO SEND THEM A EMAIL AND NVIDIA IS LIKE YAY YOU NEED THE COMPANY THAT MADE THE CARD FOR THAT LIKE MSI AND EVAGA WE'RE JUST NOT HELPFULL AT ALL! at most i will probbally try to flash the bios then wait till chirstmas and get anorther gpu amd or a real 1050 ti SOLD BY AMAZON

That's because the seller is the scammer not MSI. MSI may help with sending you a factory vBIOS file but that's probably about the full extent their help is going to be other than that you've already been told what to do about it RMA through Amazon

Yeah, i wish you'd listen now and start an RMA with Amazon...they're pretty good for things like that! These fakes are all over eBay too, i report every single one i see! In fact, as a result of me and likely others doing it, i noticed the product pages changed for a while with the real values in brackets.. They started putting f.e. 4GB GDDR5 (1GB) etc lol

This is what happens with most old, discarded tech anyway..sold off cheap to other countries who...shall remain nameless but begins with C etc I can get an old Pentium 4 on Socket 478 at 3.2GHz for like £3 shipped....awwwww yeah Need a few spare CPUs though, used all mine >.< Got a classic 1.8AGHz delidded sat in a board with pinmods running at 3.33GHz haha.. Definitely beats the Socket 462/A Athlons i have at most things (at last)! Completely off topic but i have an Abit NF7-S on the way, sadly not a V2 though and no IO plate.. As my ASUS A7N8X 2.0 died on me (no surprises there, it's ASUS..) but it did get a 3000+ XP Barton to 2.4GHz without much effort. I miss my old machine from back then though, built it when i was like 17.. AXP 2500+ in an NF7-S2, tweaked and modded until i got nearly 3.2GHz out of it! Using a huge Eheim mains driven pond pump popular at the time and a 240mm rad, block bolted through the board.. Those were the days! Need to get a dual Socket A board back too, the one i had was ASUS and surprise surprise died on me as well!

Plot twist. OP is actually the scammer and tested it in GPUz. GPUz said it was a fake and now he wants to get rid of it so he can sell it with a "clear conscious".

I used my brain and after much messing about left the maker of the chip to decide what's right.

Doing anything other than that (I assure you I tried )reduces typical performance, increases the heat output (if static clocks are used)

Single cores will be ok as you have it ,all cores sustained boost will be lower.
