I showed some of these wish scams to my dad who, funny enough, works with patenting, and hes generally triggered and annoyed to know about it. Wish.com sells SOOO much counterfeit items (From shoes to PC parts etc), so how is this legal?

    You're lucky you didn't get any "GPU Bombs". Basically they are wired to actively destroy any motherboard that you plug it into, so that when you angrily try to return it for a refund they can claim that your motherboard is the issue.
    A good way to determine if you have GPU Bomb is to connect an HDMI cable from a monitor (while the monitor is turned on) into the card. If the fan starts spinning without the card being plugged into anything else, DO NOT PLUG IT INTO A COMPUTER. I believe there are a few videos on UA-cam that shows this happening. The only reason I knew about it was because a friend of mine got one of these off of Wish and it destroyed his whole setup, even the ram.

I received the package all hyped up, opened the box, and inside that quite big box was 4 (FOUR, F-O-U-R) fucking black and white printed pictures taken DIRECTLY from benchmade's site, the damn watermark was still there.

Got it, within 5 minutes in a game it artifacted and crashed, It was overheating like a boss. I had a well ventilated case at the time (it was a thermaltake case cant remember the model) Looked online apparently a ton of people were having the same issue called support and they acted like they didn't know what I was talking about when I said this appears to be a known issue, it was the middle of winter and opened the window in my office, it was like 40F and I was wrapped in a blanket, damn thing was still overheating. He wanted time to figure out a solution and call me back. Come on there was a reason they were selling these things at such a discount, I assume a good portion of the batch were defective. After I got off the phone I returned the thing to Best Buy and bought an Radeon HD5850.
