    GeForce 6600 pci express capacitor replacement help

    Computer worked fine last night, today it seems to boot but no image.
    Blown capacitor(see pics) is:
    FZ4C 1500uf 6.3v.
    There are 4 like this. I guess ill replace them all.
    I know the FZ are crap, I just want to verify my choices below are ok and does it pay to spend more on the united chem con?

    If my choices are no good please suggest a replacement.

    This link is to a post for the same card but with slightly different caps(FZ54 vs. FZ4C)

      Yes those should work well. Clean out the fan and heatsink too, re apply thermal paste

        I replaced the 4 caps this afternoon and so far so good. I also cleaned fan and heat sink that was 80% blocked.
        Thanks

            Wow, looks like those FZs have no vents either!

            You replaced just those large 4 FZs? Better replaced the small FZs too. And if those blue caps with gold stripes are OST or GSC - get rid of them too.

              Those blue ones with the gold stripes look like Lelon or Skywell

                I plan on replacing the other caps. Had to make sure it would still work first.

                  I've seen that before on an almost new GF 210. They hadn't failed, but I recapped the card anyway, and then I reverse-polarised the vent-less sacons on a 12V PSU.

                  I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

                  No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

                    Over here, I have a Ruby in 1500uF 6.3V!

                    And even a lousy KZG is better than that POS!
