We actually do this deliberately when reporting a different GPU vendor because some games will literally just break otherwise.

Rare case of "feature, not a bug".

Ok so this is not an issue ?

DDanielPopRe 2025-05-22 github

Anyways in older versions i tried to benchmark and it said rtx 3050 ti

Yes, it's a fairly recent change. Most games don't check the D3D9 device name but we've definitely run into some that do.
