    Just watched this (year-old) VOD - nice job. You didn't need to remove the cooler, though, to see what the die was. HWiNFO64 (at 5:15 in your video) actually TELLS YOU it's a GF116 (under "Video Chipset Codename") which is a Fermi die - (I would guess a GTS 450 by virtue of the "16 ROPs, 192 Unified Shaders" spec). If you re-flash the BIOS to reflect what the card actually is, it'll probably stop crashing the PC and displaying "hash" in MineCraft (although whether it's worth it just to have a GTS 450 is questionable).
    BTW, any time you can output video from Windows, but not from the BIOS, that's a clear indicator that the GPU is too old for the BIOS to have drivers for it - (most BIOS have graphics card drivers that only stretch back 6-8 years) - by installing the nVidia drivers in Windows (which go back much FARTHER) you were able to see it!

    I think your card might be a gtx 560m just like the one I have, i think these chinese manufacturers buy the gtx 560m chips in bulk for cheap and sell them as scam cards like this one

    I found reviews from unlucky buyers about this card. They found out it were GF106/116 behind that heatsink. Also thank you for your video, proves this card is fake and I'll change my mind from buying it. Almost...

      For games, as i demonstrate in my video, it doesn't work. For other purposes, it also crashes each couple of minutes! I was finally able to return mine after endless hours with Walmart support :)
