- The graphics card selection on Walmart's website is shocking, it really looks like the selection off Wish.com. The Graphics Card Scam migration continues...

The reason that scam cards get sold on Canada websites is because Canadians are too nice to complain.
i complain to walmart just now they say they are looking into it
Oooh! That makes sense. 😂
Lol 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
So accurate
@@adamtheman17 did the F1 Ferrari team work at Walmart now
At this point I'm convinced that Dawid is the whole reason these scam graphics cards are selling
Lmao.....
I've been seeing a bunch of them pop up locally lately. I'm suspecting that it's people looking for a deal, and they just don't know any better. Then they try to sell it off like they are upgrading. I'm hoping videos like these deter more people from buying them.
Yeah, I guess I am their sole customer at this point. 😅
Dang it, you beat me to it. Thanks for the laugh 😂
@@DawidDoesTechStuff will you be buying one of those NEW Nvidia GT 1010 cards they are releasing to replace the loser gt 710? Because I NEED THAT VIDEO!!!!
At this point you will see a dinosaur before you will see a GPU with a good price
Got a 3070 at work for 550€, saw a customer cancelled their order and immideately bought it, its usually 624€ though...
Eh, Picked up my PNY GTX 1650 Super for $170 on Best Buy's website a month ago, yeah its about $10 higher than MSRP, but this card has a pretty good factory overclock, I've seen it report speeds of up to 2 ghz.
Also its one hell of a lot better than my previous “failing” RX 570, which while removing I realized that it might have just been a little bit of dust in its PCIE slot...
I managed to get a 6800 XT over christmas for the suggested retail price. I feel stupidly lucky :D
buying a 1080 for 100pounds from a friend
bought a 1060 6gb for 140
"not many modern graphics cards have Triassic period video outs"
-Dawid Does Tech Stuff while pointing to a VGA connector on a graphics card, 2021
That was exactly his point, no modern cards have that port, meaning it isn't modern.
My 1650 super don't have that blue vga port, so, yeah....
My 1050 doesn't have a VGA port, so...
"Colorized"
@@rhekman Ah yes, that's what i was forgetting.
I found a gtx 1050ti on amazon and the title says "1 GB GDDR"
Fake
@@iSamYTBackup Wdym that definitely sounds like a 1050Ti just an obscure variation of it that Nvidia's never released before. Seems legit to me. 🤡
4 gig card only . there are versions with no power connector though . Theres only 6 brands of 1050ti i believe.
@@tobiwonkanogy2975 /woosh
@@StotterChannel maybe dude doesnt realize this theres no sarcasm in the comment.
did Nvidia make like 1 gts 450 chip for every human on the fking earth? how are there so many of them ?
Scavenging,like Chinese x79 motherboards. Except the people who make these GPUs do scams. They basically take the chip itself and put it on a new pcb.
At least they were build to last 🤔
Haha!! I know right!
The integrated graphics of the era were crap, and the 450 was in a value sweet spot for middling pre builds. It is also a much better card than the gt 610 and 710, so I can see a legit Chinese market for cards made from scavenged chips up until Nvidia dropped driver support in 2018.
Dawid out here keeping these guys in business single-handedly lol
Good thing is Walmart makes it easy to return. 😅
Sad to say there are many people that got burned & reselling these on Ebay & Gumtree here in Australia, some sellers are even trying to get over $100AUD
Canadian walmart needs to do quality control on the listing for graphics cards
I know right! Their graphics card listings are horrible.
Omg the reincarnation joke at the end was actually good! 🤣
hahaha ikr. The threat of becoming a Scam GTS 450 in my next life will keep me on the straight and narrow for sure.
@@AnnaDoes Yeah same tbh 😝
😅
nVIDIA GTS450Trump
*Dawid sees fake graphics card
Dawid: Wish noooooooo
Me: what?
Dawid: sorry force of habbit
Haha!!
I complain to corporate about this and nothing is being done. Walmart needs to get a grip
That's crazy. There needs to be some form of vetting process for sellers.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Do Canadians not have some form of legislative consumer protection ? In NZ that would be a full refund and possibly a fraud investigation regarding Walmart
@@Y333KIN same here in Australia,
yet instead of doing something positive there are many here just reselling on Ebay & Gumtree trying scam someone else to get their money back
When you say ‘there needs to be some form of vetting process for sellers’, does Walmart host third-party sellers? I thought Walmart was just a large supermarket.
(I’m from England for context).
"apparently canadians are really susceptible for falling for graphics cards scams"
procedes to buy a fake graphics card.
🤣🤣🤣
Did NVidia actually made and sold so many GTS 450? I can't believe how many of them are out there in the wild.
"Hey, what should I do with this clearly illegitimate GPU that just broke the PCIe lane on this incredibly cheap PC?" "Oh I ought to pair it with a STRIX motherboard lmao, and make sure it's running off a power supply on par with a Duracell battery that's got a little acid leak"
Someday I'll tell my therapist about the permanent trauma I obtained from watching Dawid's treatment of test benches.
the gpu didn't break the PCIe lane, he probably broke it when installing it ;-)
Is it obvious we’ve been watching Chernobyl?
You seem familiar...
@@hassaan3861 yeah she does look eerily similar to someone who is sometimes featured on this channel hmm....
36 likes, not great but not terrible
😅
Did I miss some references? I haven't seen it
Little molex tip, put downwards or upwards pressure on the wires at the back of both male and female ends, angling the pins up or down in a straight line against the inside of the connector. This will keep all the male/female pins aligned on both sides as you connect them.
I busted a seller on eBay for selling a fake 1050ti, he changed his listing right then and there 😂. These fake video cards are so obvious.
They are obvious when you know what to look for. Unfortunately not everyone does. Good job flagging that listing. 😁
Here in SE-Asia, we have our own Amazon-ish online stores, where you wouldn't even trust the sellers because the majority of the products that's in there, you'll regret buying it.
(also, The fake graphics card that you've shown are all in here lol)
Lazada and Shopee intensifies.
The "driver disc" that came with the "GPU", did you try using that? Curious to see if the disc is official or fake drivers to get it running.
if I were them, I'd put a virus on there.
Me: What GPU Is this?
GUPZ: Yes
I nearly fell off my chair laughing when you realised it was a GTS450. It was always going to be but there is always that crumb of hope that it is not! These scammers really are bad in this graphics card "no show" era!
I appreciate all the quick humour you have in your videos, it really cheers me up. I think it complements your high quality video content perfectly.
okay you're by far the funniest youtuber ive ever seen. thank you and congrats on 200k, you were funny at 13k, and even more funny now.
SOLD AND SHIPPED BY "LITTLE LOVE" not walmart. Misleading video is misleading.
@@crisnmaryfam7344 shut up
The reason GPU-Z was not reporting anything at 7:15 is because it needs the drivers to load before it can query the card...
2:51 My 3060 Ti came without bubble wrap,but still in huge soft foam blocks along with the two layers of boxes you’d expect from a Nvidia GPU.
You might consider putting these in resin to make coffee tables...
...and sell them on Walmart Canada.
The HD 7970 is still a good and capable stopgap GPU, they can be had for under 40 EUR here in Germany for example
Thermometer edition! Oh my gosh you are hilarious man. I seriously laugh out loud every time I watch one of your videos.
Hey Dawid i love the vids,
I've seen you use crappy pre-builts and dodgy cards off wish before and that is ussually very interesting,
i'd love to see either a review or a look at some of those budget xlr microphones,
if you go onto amazon and have a look there are a lot of these cheep chinese mics that i think would be great to have a look at
You should probably try and make some sort of counterfeit Voltron out of all those GTS 450 cards.
Your videos are hilarious. I like how you randomly do things that no one thinks about. Keep it going!
Such as??
"Scoobydoo villain revealtime" and "it is actually my uncle" made me spill my coffee all over my clothes sir! Wahahahahahahahaha!
The ONLY thing I need right now is an endless supply of David Does Tech Stuff videos
So Walmart is using drop-shipping now.
When will you learn you've gotta use the CD😁! Put it in and see if it runs with dem custom drivers!
Would be interesting...also if its a gts 450 last fermi driver was like 391.35
I bet the thermometer GT 730 still performs better than the GT 710.
The ability to identify gts 450s is a skill ive developed from watching your videos
As someone who works at Walmart Canada, yeah it doesn't surprise me.
@4:30 man, growing up building systems in the old days... I know your pain.
The 110 is indeed also a gts 450 chip, for the asian market I guess
I wonder where on Earth they keep finding so many unused trays of this gpu when it is a decade old by now minus a few months. It would be hog heaven if there was that many from 3DFX so retro gamers would have something that isn't over twenty years old for 9x and dos gaming that isn't a compromise on performance or quality.
Who said unused
Fun fact: some fake GPUs use Arctic Cooling Accelero L2 GPU coolers
I go for things Sold and Shipped by Walmart.....when I see it is sold and shipped by one of the 3rd party sellers, I stay away.
It seems Dawid has begun to WANT his systems to set on fire now
Well it would give him some new excitement LoL.
Its the only way he feels any emotion anymore. If it doesn't catch on fire, he can't feel a thing after being so numb after all these years.
@@deathsyth8888 😂😂 Very true
Agreed. I can't see any other reason he would continue to use that power supply
Kinda the inverse of JayzTwoCents who is constantly trying to freeze hiss computers to death with liquid nitrogen :)
It's because Walmart and Amazon allow third party sellers on their website. The cheap chinese knock off sellers make their way on there and push their merch.
bro when i saw that thermometer GT730 i almost pissed myself laughing so hard
Again Dawid brings out some fun in all the chaos. A Triassic VGA, thought D-Sub VGA was Cambrian, and DVI Jurassic? Of Course a modulator to connect to CRT TV is pre-Cambrian.
wow... 200k subs!?!? i found this guy around 16k maybe? maybe 8k subs? damn dude! keep up the good stuff! even though you roasted me on the "guess where i'm moving to" video. lol
I almost died laughing when you said Triassic period adapter lol
because this is through walmart could you try and do a customer service claim or anything? curious to see how that goes vs the wild west of wish
I just sold a 1050TI for almost twice what I paid for it back in 2018. No need for fakes with the price that cards are going for right now.
3 weeks for delivery , must be from China...thats a long wait...
As soon as the dual molex to 6 pin came out I smashed the like button hard.
Out of curiosity, do you make attempts to recover costs with these, or is it just a part of your expenses?
Let's take a moment of silence for all the people actually rocking a gts 450
On the other system did you try using the DVI or VGA hookups instead of HDMI? sometimes you need to use those for first boot on systems after disabling on board.
"Triassic era video outputs" im dead
The "picture in the middle of the display" is actually overscan and is used over hdmi on most gpus because TVs have a dumb legacy setting which cuts off 2.5-10% of the screen. So gpus have to do that over hdmi
I too hate our Canadian websites too, Dawid. The struggle is real, but sometimes interesting when you open the package ;)
On the next episode, Dawid buys scam graphics card at a Walmart Store
another thing i always see on basically every fake nvidia card, is the terribly printed nvidia logo on the fan, the colours are always off and the print is always super fuzzy
I mentioned this to a Walmart Manager and they just told me that they have Vendors that sell online and Walmart doesn't have much control over it.... Yea ok
This whole hot mess just leaves me wanting more!! I’m grabbing my Scooby snacks for the next one!!
So we got to a point where you don't ask can it run crisis. You ask "can it run at all?".
😂🤣😂 I always thought Walmart.ca was a fake site. Crazy that it's actually legit.
It's funny, I have great luck with Molex. There's maybe one or two times where it's not so well.
Molex the "dead connector standard"
D5 pump manufacturers must have not gotten the memo.
Maybe because of the tariffs on things like video cards makes it not worth importing the fake stuff to the US, but still worth it to Canada.
Anyone else think Dawid has an unhealthy obsession with things catching on fire?
"un"healthy please!
He lives in Canada. it's cold in Canada, nothing unhealthy about wanting shit to burn because you're cold
I just checked. If you select "sold and shipped by Walmart" all but one is out of stock. The only one that isn't, as of this post, is the MSI Geforce GTX 1660 VENTUS XS 6G OC 6GB GDDR5, at CA$1,567.97
with an additional $16.04 standard shipping fee. Even it isn't "sold and shipped" by Walmart, and it's "almost sold out".
I laughed my ASS off when I read the Google Search result!!
"The Triassic Period (252-201 million years ago) began after Earth's worst-ever extinction event devastated life. The Permian-Triassic extinction event, also known as the Great Dying, took place roughly 252 million years ago and was one of the most significant events in the history of our planet."
By the time good cards come back in stock I'll have saved up enough to buy 3.
Omg 😂 "If you were a really bad person you get reincarnated as a GTS450"😂
Molex isn't a connector standard, they are a manufacturer that makes thousands of different connectors. That particular connector was a poor choice though. Many of the current connectors are still made by Molex.
Gpu are just impossible to get right now
You should isntall drivers from included cd
who the fuck still uses dvd readers
As a fellow Canadian, our Wallmart website is the worst. I dont know why anybody buys parts there anyway, since Canada Computers offers better prices, service, inventory, etc, etc.
The Fermi era GPUs couldn't detect overscan settings out of the box so you end up with the display being offset from the bounds of the screen until the driver loaded
absolute gold , i actually got something similar but re flashed the bios and it works fine..if your definition of fine is average
Any place with a third party market place is going to get this crap. I don't know if NVIDIA has done anything the past 2 generations to stop this, but they really need to start printing the model numbers in big text on the PCBs, and making the portion of the BIOS with the device identifier as read only.
Thanks dawid! i will be moving my gtx 2050ti listings to amazon canada now
_The GPU only took three weeks to arrive because its been floating on a plastic garbage patch across the pacific before you ordered it._
Alternative title: Garry got a job at Walmart.
Have they re-released the Voodoo 3 AGP yet?
If you live in Canada, just buy PC parts from Linus Media Group. They've got tons of parts laying around in their warehouses full of computer parts.
I ordered an i5-9400f from walmart for $100. ended up taking two weeks for a response and it never came. It took an extra week just to get a refund. Never buying from walmart again
Seriously? Dammn. That’s why if you’re buying online you should probably buy from Amazon, cause you can track your order.
I bought one of these thinking it was a 750ti but it was a gts 450
Ah, that's brutal. I hope you were able to return it?
The first time I tried to buy a graphics card it was on Ebay.
After bidding (and being the highest bidder so far) I noticed that the cooler was the most common one for fakes and that a card that couldn't possibly have an sli connector had a fake sli connector - so I called Ebay, told them that I was the highest bidder so far on an obviously fake graphics card and wanted my bid cancelled.
And they did it.
Then I bought a used rx 470 8gb for $87 that worked fine for me for two years.
People call me dumb for hanging on to my Radeon 5850, but by the end of the year, that thing is gonna be worth millions, I tell you!
@Dawid - Please return it to walmart.. well and ask for a proper 1050 as replacement, they obviously must have mixed up something during the "overseas" shipping. 😆
I thought that Dr. Evils connector of choice would be the USB 3 mainboard connector?
“Depressing lineup of graphics cards”
RX580 and RTX2060
There is a reason why you've not seen this so called graphics card. Looks like E waste
To be fair with the prices right now $600 for a HD 7970 almost sounds like a good deal ^^
What is it with GTS 450 in particular? Did Nvidia like produce a mountain of them, and now there are like storehouses full of unused GTX 450's?
I'm at walmart.ca with a search for "video card" and if I click "Sold & Shipped by Walmart" all the video cards go away. So it's clear that it's not Walmart selling the scam cards, it's the Walmart Partners that are selling them. Not that that's any better. But it does show that there is an easy way to avoid buying a scam video cards through Walmart.
Also I’ve seen that the driver cd will brick an entire system. If you wanna really break something
Last video: It's finally cheaper to buy computer parts in Canada than the US
This video:
I kinda wonder what the drivers install CD would do... you should definitely try it out!
Kinda wanna see what happens if you contact support
