This videocard uses these fake polymers. The vent is a "K" suggesting Rubycon, but I doubt it. These are SMT but there are two holes on the back of the card for through-hole mounting as well. How do you get them off without tearing the foil traces? What is an appropriate replacement? Thanks for this.

Re: Please identify these caps
Happy Christmas
That is a poor picture - cant really see a card manufacturer using fake caps

Re: Please identify these caps
As far as removing them, just heat one side with a soldering iron, tilt the cap up a bit, then do the same on the other -- don't over do it, you may have to go back and forth a couple of times; then remove the excess solder carefully off the pads with flux and wick.
Retake the pic at an angle next time so the glare doesn't obscure the lettering.

Re: Please identify these caps
Those aren't fakes, those capacitors are made by Tecate Group. They're actually polymers, and although I can't tell you which series exactly, here are their polymer datasheets."We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
