64 meg NVIDIA AGP card
Had some issues and pulled the card, but I can't decide if those 470 uF 10V caps are bad or not.
Did anyone replace caps like those? Oh, and for some extra 'fun', they are surface mounted...  TIA |

Re: 64 meg NVIDIA AGP card
No need to replace them if the card works, they're polymer caps from a good brand.
Didn't get my "coffee" yet (9 am here) but if I remember correctly the circle logo belongs to Nippon Chemi Con / United Chemi Con which is a very good manufacturer. |

Re: 64 meg NVIDIA AGP card
those are not polymers, I can see the vent.
try a different card, same issues, not the card issues go away, bad card, but not necessarily bad caps |

Re: 64 meg NVIDIA AGP card
Yup. definitely Nichicon. The funny thing with those is that they often look somewhat bulged even when brand new. I think it's just something to do with the was they make the cans.

Re: 64 meg NVIDIA AGP card
Probably. The grooves are not as easily visible on those as they are on other nichicon series like HM
