    Badly faked pannies

    I pulled these caps of an MX400 video card and replaced them with sanyo WG. They are clearly fakes. Note the K-vents. Also, NHG series are not suited to this application. At least the rubber seal is correct. The worrying thing is, though, the soldering looked professional, suggesting that the manufacturer of the card used them.

    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

      The MX400 is a fairly old card. The brand of the card is GTF, if the heatsink is anything to go by.

          I'll hang on to the card, but the old caps can get exploded.

              Wow that's bad. Usually semi-big manufacturers won't do that crap.

                That might be a resleeved Rubycon. I have a Rubycon cap that has the same bung design.
