It turns out that this caps is for real, from Panasonic, and many motherboards/vga card manufacturers use it because it is comparable to: Chemicon KZG (good cap), Rubycon MBZ (good cap), Nichicon HM (it's badcaps in past time).

So if you found this FJ cap on a motherboard or vga card you want to choose, fear not, they are good caps.









Datasheet:
Panasonic FJ Capacitor
Made in Malaysia

Another thread about FJ capacitor you'll find on this badcaps forum:

So, performance grade of panasonic alumunium electrolytic capacitor series (lower to greater):


FC -> FK -> FJ -> FM

I think is FJ - FC - FK - FM (LOW to HIGH)

No, they're actually on par or better (esr wise) with FM/FR series. The datasheet is here, you can compare it with FM or FR.
