With the launch and hot sale of NVIDIA RTX 40 series graphics cards, and the blessing of various promotional activities in the coming May Day short holiday, many players have plans to upgrade their computer equipment in the near future. However, I believe that many friends have some doubts when buying new graphics cards, such as which graphics card to buy, and how to identify fake cards and refurbished cards.

For example, recently, many people have found some graphics card brands that they have never heard of before, such as Carnoch, Resol, Pan Radium, issuers, Jetty, Bing Ying, and so on. The products of these brands are all very cheap and have a warranty. So can I buy these graphics cards? Is it reliable?

Some time ago, NVIDIA specifically stepped forward and made a public response to this question:

These new online brands have nothing to do with NVIDIA. They are not partners of NVIDIA, they have never done business with NVIDIA, and even NVIDIA does not know these companies.

Therefore, the above brands are obviously the legendary "shanzhai graphics cards", most of these graphics cards are "retired" from the mining machine after the "mining tide" in the past and then flow into the market, and when they are sold, they also use RTX 3060 Ti, 2060 Super, which can not be branded to confuse the public, so that many players are tricked, and the rights and interests of NVIDIA and other formal AIC card manufacturers are damaged. Therefore, everyone must keep their eyes open when buying graphics cards!

At present, NVIDIA is also working closely with major e-commerce platforms to clean up miscellaneous graphics cards, and has achieved preliminary results. When choosing graphics cards, you must recognize the official partners of NVIDIA mainland, such as gigabyte, Asustek, Seven Rainbow, Yingchi, Yingzhong, Mingyi, Renli and other well-known brands.

Gigabytes, for example, as front-line card manufacturers, their graphics cards, motherboards and other DIY products have always had a large number of fans. In terms of graphics cards, the AORUS high-end e-sports graphics cards have always provided powerful performance and heat dissipation solutions for fever-level players, and have been unanimously recognized by fever-level players.

The Gaming OC series has brought high-performance heat dissipation design and overclocking ability for mainstream gamers and e-sports enthusiasts, and has also won a good market reputation for its excellent game experience and performance.

In addition, there are VISION OC, EAGLE series, and some time ago with the launch of the RTX 40 series and the new AERO series graphics cards, all have different positioning, for different consumer groups, we can choose the corresponding series of graphics card products according to their actual needs.

In short, if you recognize the official channels of regular AIC graphics card manufacturers, you will not buy knockoff cards or refurbished cards. At present, gigabyte and other graphics card manufacturers are also working with NVIDIA to crack down on the chaos of counterfeit cards and refurbished cards in the market. They are working with e-commerce platforms such as JD.com, pinduoduo and Douyin to clean up the sales of fake cards.

For example, JD.com POP, Douyin made it clear that merchants are not allowed to sell second-hand refurbished, refurbished and false publicity graphics cards, some playing with the old RTX 20-series, 16-series and 10-series models, JD.com POP and Douyin are no longer allowed to sell on the platform, I believe that in the major e-commerce to play regulatory responsibilities to help, these miscellaneous cards, refurbished graphics cards will be effectively curbed, so that consumers buy graphics cards more at ease.

At the same time, gigabyte and other graphics card manufacturers have also provided some suggestions on how to avoid the pit for consumers who choose graphics cards. In addition to identifying the official channels of regular AIC manufacturers, you can also consider the following two options:

First of all, priority is given to the purchase of RTX 40 series graphics cards. Because the RTX 40 series is released after the "mine tide", there are basically no ore cards, and the newly listed graphics card products are also difficult to be refurbished by unscrupulous manufacturers. For example, gigabyte's RTX 4090 AERO OC, RTX 4090 GAMING OC, AORUS RTX 4090 MASTER and so on, are all good choices.

Second, the purchase of RTX 30 series later minor changes, such as upgrading the GDDR6X memory of RTX 3060 Ti, and 8GB memory of the new version of RTX 3060 and so on, such as gigabyte magic eagle RTX 3060 Ti GD6X GAMING OC and so on, can become everyone's priority.
