Your current bios shows mini hdmi which i believe is incorrect for your card.

Your bios you just uploaded is the same as the nvidia labeled one here.

THANKS!! Should I send this GPU back and ask for a refund??

Here it is.

Okay this proves that the BIOS you have is modded because of the Samsung memory detection so what we need to do is get you another bios

It would seem all 750s with 4G ram with a vga port the bios has mini hdmi, so use this bios to flash with. Itvshoukd resolve samsung detection and put in elpida.

Try it but i don't think that the bios is the problem as i believe that the wrong resistor strap setting is on the pcb board.
The mini hdmi vs hdmi is not a problem because physically has the same pins, so it should not be affected by the vbios.

All we can do is try but the bios reports and detects memory values, it may have settings for elpida but its being deceptive.

I didn't know you were in Texas. I love Texas!!! I wish I was there now. Sadly, I am in South Jersey. :(

Yup TX is about true freedom.

NJ is the complete opposite. I'm trying to escape.

Yup, good, anyways have you flashed the card?
Have not done it yet because I have been back and forth with Newegg customer service regarding a potential refund. They're still reviewing everything. Once they come to a resolution I will be picking up with the flashing. It might be about another 5 days. I appreciate all your expertise. Thanks!!
