NVIDIA 1050 Ti not working

[mahlzeit]

Hello,
just bought a (no-name) GTX1050i card for my TS-855x (running QTS 5.2.3.3006) and of course it’s not working. It shows up in the control panel correctly with internal chip name GP107. Same for gpuhal_app output. But it does not show up in Plex nor is it showing me any metrics (fan speed, memory, etc.) in the control panel.

Curiously, dmesg shows this error:

The Unknown NVIDIA GF1xx Series GPU installed in this system is not supported through the 550.67 NVIDIA driver.

This is not correct, as it’s clearly a GP107 and not a model from the GF1xx series.

I have the GPU and Kernel drivers installed with latest version 5.2.0.1225. Also tried GPU driver 5.0.4.1 with no success.

Looks like it was a fake card… With an old GPU modified to disguise itself as a 1050

Where did you buy a fake card from AliExpress…Temu?

It was a third party seller on Walmart.com
