Hi guys,
I'm new on this great forum, but pretty familiar with electronic service. It's just a hobby, not my everyday job, but I like it and it's a good way of spending my spare times.
I have an ASROCK 4CoreDual-SATA2 R2 motherboard, 1.5 years old and I've decided to recap it completely. It works flawless, recap just for fun and checking its overclocking margins.
The motherboard came with:
30 x 1000μF/6.3V Nippon Chemi-Con TMZ = 0.02 - 0.03 Ω ESR
3 x 1000μF/16V Nippon Chemi-Con KZG = 0.01 Ω ESR (CPU)
1 x 1000μF/16V Nippon Chemi-Con KMZ = 0.01 Ω ESR
7 x 1500μF/6.3V Panasonic FJ = 0.01 Ω ESR (CPU)
2 x 1500μF/6.3V Panasonic FL = 0.01 Ω ESR (DDR)
5 x 100μF/16V Teapo (sorry, forgot to get the series) = 0.05 Ω ESR
I ordered all capacitors as follows:
Rubycon MCZ 1000μF 16v
Rubycon MCZ 1500μF 6.3v
Panasonic FM 100μF 50V
I'm thinking about replacing only the Nippon Chemi-Con and Teapo caps and leaving Panasonics as they are now.
What do you think - should I replace all caps (including Panasonics) or even leaving the board as it, as it works flawless?
Thanks guys.
