Sooooo..I found this card for 110€ (cheap for Greek standards..it costs 130€ from a shop) .From some research I did because lets phase it.. it's not a top quality card ..it seems legit .Here some vids from youtube .If it's legit I'll buy it as an upgrade to an old desktop.

Never heard of it, I don't know about other people
Just stay with known board partners: Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, EVGA, Zotac, Galax, Inno3D, Pallit

I mean people had bought Chinese GPUs and they were legit. It's not for my main pc .I just want a second desktop for my friends to play games in my home.

fake gpus usually have an VGA output. ask the seller if it supports vga and if it does its fake

If you feel confident about purchasing it, It's up to you then. But I personally, would just stick with known brands for my purchase.

So if that helps here's a part from an article about oem GPUs (Specifically the RX 460 variant you can find for 40€)

"JEGY RX460 4GB graphics card
JEGY is a Chinese brand associated with some no-name and mining cards you can find on some online stores. On ebay I found a listing for refurbished Jegy RX 460 4GB from Greece at ~70GBP, bit cheaper than the OEM Medion card and with more VRAM.

The card has two much louder fans that seems to push noticeable amount of air through. It also requires an additional 6-pin power connector. The radiator does look very basic but it seems to get the job done as the GPU in FurmMark didn't exceeded 52C. Similarly as with Medion card this also worked without problems. You can find more details on the GPU-Z validation entry. And so the stock benchmark results are as follow:

Userbenchmark: 72nd percentile
Superposition: 3283 points
3DMark Raid: 24 580 Graphics Score
3DMark Time Spy: 1 754 Graphics Score
3DMark Fire Strike: 6 024 Graphics Score
3DMark Fire Strike Extreme: 2 654 Graphics Score
Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0: 461 score, 18,3 FPS (3440x1440)
Unigine Valley Benchmark 1.0: 861 score, 20,6 FPS (3440x1440)
So the scores are just a bit better than the stock Medion card. But with two speedy fans and a bit of luck it managed to run some benchmarks at 1342 MHz and 1332 MHz for the 3DMark ones. That's a pretty nice overclock. The scores are as follow:

Userbenchmark: 100th percentile
Superposition: 3651 points
3DMark Raid: 26 989 Graphics Score (3rd result currently)
3DMark Time Spy: 1 933 Graphics Score (95th result currently)
3DMark Fire Strike: 6 748 Graphics Score
3DMark Fire Strike Extreme: 2 943 Graphics Score (24th result currently)
Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0: 500 score, 19,9 FPS (3440x1440)
Unigine Valley Benchmark 1.0: 968 score, 23,1 FPS (3440x1440)
So here performance gains are higher - 11,2% for Superposition or 10% for Time Spy. Although RX 460 isn't a hot topic on 3DMark leatherboards it's fun to reach high scores with no-name cards. Just be warned if you see JEGY somewhere - you should not treat it as an indication that the product is legit and that it's of good quality - there are random cards branded or referenced by this name and not everything can be what given sites says it is "
