    Pls help identify weird black polymer caps



    Could those can really be a Nichicon polymer FP 5K series caps, 270uF 16V?
    Because the color does not match and I know of no "5K" serie of these caps.
    Only know of FPCAP series E5 and R5, nothing more with "5", futhermore none of these are made in 270uF 16V - ONLY L8, PS and R7 series. AND they (FP L8 on picture) look quite different:

    So, what the hell is this?!

    They are Nichicon FP, but it's most likely a custom order for Asrock (or who made this board, it looks like Asrock).

      What mariushm already said, they are indeed Nichicon FP.
      The 5K (or 10K) addition stands for 105C 5000Hrs (or 10000Hrs), standard FP caps (with red markings, L8 series) do 2000Hrs.
      They are custom caps for Asus, maybe other manuf. & Asrock also (but i've seen Asrock just with other 'gold coloured' caps, no FP's).

        Interesting, never heard about it. And can we determine the series from the 34Ao text...? Or we have no way to know, what series they are, if these are custom made?

        I mean - specs What specs are these - long life ones, as you say?

          Seems like they may have been painted, or like mentioned multiple times, custom ordered.
