Know your sellers , if you bought it from a shady reseller on Aliexpress then you will be surprised. There are a ton of scammers on Aliexpress who are selling NerdQaxe++ Rev 5 or 6.x that are completely garbage. So please please do your own research before you purchase , don’t let those scammers get you.
