I'm not an EVGA rep but that looks like the same BIOS that was on my previous Hybrid FTW, which also shared the same BIOS version as the regular FE cards.

I own a FE, and have the 3B bios myself. Thats why im basically lmao over this whole thing xD. A EE friend explained that there is Q1 cards with only the 17 bios, and Q3 cards with the 17 and later on 3B bios. Just want a EVGA engineer / rep to confirm them in a post so i can SS / linkback.

Best thing to do is let that user sit there and beg for attention because clearly they aren’t looking for help.
As for the FTW vs Founders BIOS, I could see some users not wanting to load the FTW BIOS since the card had a 10 phase versus the founders 5 phase.
Miguel already answered the OP’s questions with facts, and the OP decided to start getting vulgar, so best thing to do is let their questions go completely unanswered.

It's the compiled bios core that they shared, which is where the shared version string comes from, there are other facets of the bios modified between the FTW and FE version - clocks, fan scale, voltage table. i dumped the 3B bios from my own card, so i know its a FE.

I’m this case, I wouldn’t spend any more time worrying about someone like that. Even if the Bios got up and danced an Nvidia founders song, that user will not be happy.

tbh, you're right. even if Jacob posted directly to that thread with EVGA flair the guy would call him incorrect and send him insults in pm's lol.
