Is this 750 Ti worth the buy?

[Bubble_Double]

Now, i don't know how to spot a fake graphics card, and a legit one, i just found this super cheap one, and i really wanna buy it, since it's cheap. Now, is it a fake one (it's from china). I mean, what could be wrong with it if it was fake, would it break easier, or would it just suck on performance?

Its certainly not a 750ti , probably an old 8600gt or similar with a new shroud.
The dead giveaway ?? It has an sli port on the side , 750ti's don't have them

Steer well clear.

That is not a 750 Ti. A 750 Ti does not have a 192-bit bus width, nor does it come with only 1gb of VRAM.

^ all true - I never even looked at specs to be honest , the photo was enough for me.

In all fairness also $66 is not THAT cheap - its aboutwhat a legit 750ti is worth nowadays whine a new RX 460 can be had for $100.

Yeah these knockoffs are all over ebay, have been for years. Parading as 650 Ti, 750 Ti, 760s, you name it. Sometimes with a 192 bit bus, sometimes 384 bit bus, sometimes GDDR3.

Look kind of fake.

Thanks dudes, i mean, i looked at the seller's profile comments, and most of them were bots, and all of the comments by humans were negative

Yeah, it's been going on for years. You were smart to ask about it. Nvidia has discussed the subject before and I believe they said these are usually based on GT 440 chips with misc amounts of VRAM and such. A lot of people get ripped off on these.

Hey, so i searched again about a gtx 750 ti, and i found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX750TI-1GB-DDR5-192Bit-PCI-Express-Video-Graphics-Card-US-/302097683780?hash=item46566cd544:g:n1AAAOSwLF1X9clq

It seems a little bit more legit, but im still not sure

Still fake. Look at the last picture. The PCB is exactly the same as the previous one, it still shows 192-bit memory bus and 1gb DDR5 which does not match 750 Ti specs. And it still has an SLI connector.
