Recently bought an Asus 750 ti fml 2gb ddr5 version ,https://www.asus.com.cn/Graphics-Cards/GTX750TIFMLOC2GD5/ this to be exact, from e-bay. Given the whole fake chinese cards out there ,this isn`t the case so far bios checks out, i was looking up at this product online and kinda stuck with that "fml" thingy. Anyone knows what this stands for ? Is it supposed to be a gpu for asian market ? for example lower quality -> lower price?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/ASUS-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-750-Ti-GTX750TI-FML-OC-2GD5-Video-Game-Card-NVIDIA-/192402760221? this is the relisted item , but it tell you it checks out so far , i did get a "gt 730" which was a gt440 with whatever bios and got refunded. This one tho is not the typical fakeish picture and benchmarks and bios reads out ok. Also the chinese asus site has the exact model listed as gt 750 ti FML oc 2bg ddr5 . i rl do not know what that fml stands for ;-p apparently not f my life

I do know all the FML cards share a single common cooler every generation, whether they be a 730 or a 750Ti or AMD brands.

The FML actually stands for "Formula" and when they first launched the formula lines the fan shroud looked like a car... I kid you not. Trip back in time;

Decent deal on that little Ti.... does it have UEFI or Legacy BIOS? if it supports Legacy BIOS I'm thinking I could use a carton of those on my shelf.

it says uefi bios on gpu-z ,yeah i thought i didnt have much to lose with this one .will pop it on my fx-8350, they match nicely i guess and pop that "gt 730" 440ish i got for free on this athlon sleeper ;-p the cooler isn`t shaped as formula tho, i ve seen those cards, so funny
