Question Graphics card not responding

[jaguevara1011]

I bought a gtx 1060 dual fan that's not being detected in BIOS, system info, or device management. The light turns on-on it when plugged into the motherboard with a PSU cable and the fans do constantly start turning for a couple seconds when I first start up the PC so it's working, but I can't get it to show up anywhere. I've tried all the PCI/PCIE slots and some BIOS settings changes but i'm not very good with BIOS. I have also tried disabling integrated graphics and restarting but nothing. Anything will do.
MOBO: b85-pro gamer
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1060 6gb GDDR5
PSU: Cooler master MWE 600W

I actually bought it off a guy on Ebay who sells many graphic cards, everyone who bought said they were legit and worked. And I believe it is up to date, my B85 pro is on version 2203 at the moment

many graphics cards meaning mining cards?

It’s probably a faulty card since you did not buy new and especially since you bought off eBay and yeah it’s probably a mining card

Ask the seller to return the card as faulty. If they wont, Ebay buyer protection tends to be able to get you your money back.

Never heard of such a thing. Dang, sucks I bought this back quite awhile ago, never got around to building my PC till now. There's no way around it huh? Since it's been several months I don't see it being returned and don't wanna go through the hassle of looking for someone to buy it for parts, Whats the 2nd best way of getting rid of this thing?
