Well I had the model number on it, don't call me an idiot but it doesn't look like the usual of its kind (Radeon HD 7770).
The model is apparently: "90 c1cs01 l0uay0bz" according to the sticker.
And trying that isn't an option, long story :p

Just as a visual comparison. This is one version of the ASUS Mini graphics card - GTX760

Curious, the cooler on it seems to be a take off of the one MSI used on their reference 7730 cards. The fan, and fan opening, is bigger on your card, and the heatsink behind is of a different design, so it's not exactly the same.

The '7770' you have is certainly one I haven't seen before, and while it may just be the camera angle, it appears to have a PCB smaller than on any other 7770 card I've seen (the back of the PCB is oddly sparse as well...), but I wonder if it could be a version that only gets sold in certain countries (there are a number of products that only get sold in China for instance)?

Either way, we won't know what's what until you get GPU-Z to have a look at it, as others suggest. You're really going to want/need to double check all the specs when you look at in GPU-Z though...

EDIT: It seems MSI used a longer version of the same cooler (with two blue strips instead of one) for one version of their 7770 range. http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R7770PMD1GD5.html#hero-overview

Ahaha at least I was right xD, well if thats all, thanks guys. I really appreciate the help!

EDIT: I got this HP for like 400 bucks and it came with a monitor, it was well worth the money i'd like to think. Plays lots'a games on medium-high.

That you most definitely were! Blimey, what an unusual motherboard; don't see many with an LGA socket and no expansion slots! Thanks for that, it's good to be reminded that these types of board exist, and that the presence of an x16 PCIe slot isn't always a given.

Good luck with your efforts to identify the card; hopefully you can find a friend who'll let you test it on their system, like Wolf suggests.
