the original card was a BFG 7800GTX. It went belly up so it got sent it for repairs. When they got the card back, it was this card. It looks to be some NVIDIA reference card but did not think much about it.
Plugged it in and one of the heads was bad. Sent the card back to BFG.
BFG called and said "this is not one of our cards, we cannot fix it"
"well its the card you sent me back"
"its not one of our cards tho"
"looks like someone in your RMA or shipping department made a mistake then"
"oh.. well... we will send you out a new 7950GTX, and you can have this card back since its not one of ours"
score.. and thats how I got a fake 7800GTX
