I was able to flash a new BIOS to the card. How could I identify the GPU? (it is GF116- something. There are 4 of them, sk hynix h5gc2h24bfr-t2c : I found it, it is a 256 MB GDDR5 ram, there are 4 of these, so not 2Gb but it means 1Gb. unfortunatelly, no more data is written by the guy who wrote to the frame by hand. GF116 could mean GTS 450, GTX550, GT640 OEM, and some mobile versions of these cards. There are some texts, written manually(!) on the frame around the GPU, starting with GF116-chinese letter-chinese-letter 192/128 blahblah (second attached image: gpu_2.jpg). Maybe it was removed artificially? Google didn't help me with these numbers. Nothing about the GPU serials that were in the videos. I removed the fan, and found the image, I attached here (image 1: gpu_unknown.jpg).
No D-Sub connector on GTX 1050s.Ģ.) The videos said (and demonstrated), that I should remove the fan, check the GPU serial GFXXX-XXX etc.ģ.) I instantly ordered an USB EPROM burner with clip, and cooler paste. I found lots of videos (youtube) and descriptions (this page and forum for example), where it was described.ġ.) I knew instantly, that I was scammed. 1.) I saw the card (it was said: GTX 1050 2G., it was 47 GBP) 2.) I bought it 3.) 3 days later, when I received the e-mail about that my package is sent, I did some research. I know, if something looks too good to be true, it is too good. I also was fool enough to buy a fake chinese VGA scam through eBay.
