    HN to replace HM - V-Core

    Have an eMachines motherboard here that had bad v-core HM's (8). I've got HN's in the correct size and value (2200/6.3).

    I see ripple would be just fine, but looks like impedance is 11 vs. original 18.

    Is that okay?

    This motherboard is 5 years old and even though 6 of the 8 were leaking electrolyte, was running just fine up until I pulled them off. The rest of the caps on the board look fine visually, so I'm going to leave the rest and if there are ever future problems deal with it then, if the computer is still in use that long.

    That's fine. I've done that replacement loads of times and I have never had any issues.

      Do it. I think the ESR variance is only 0.002 and you get better ripple suppression.

        It's back up and running. Haven't done anything with it, it's only been running for a few minutes. Looks to be good though.

        Thanks!

          Good job. That looks like an Asus OEM board possibly.
