    Replace 1000 uF 6.3V with 10V?

    I have several capacitors on my mini ITX motherboard that need replacing.

    Ignoring the 3900 uF 10V capacitors I've already replaced, there are some 1000 uF 6.3V capacitors I need to replace.

    I have quite a few 1000 uF 10V capacitors; will those work?

    Thanks!

          Just watch the pin spacing. 8mm caps are 3.5mm 10/12mm are 5mm spacing. If replacing 8 mm caps with 10/12mm be careful not to force them into the motherboard vias.

              My bad, they're 16v.

              Does that matter, or will any voltage be OK?

                  If diameter is fit, higher voltage is safety.

                    I now have to replace some 1500uF 10V caps.

                    Will either of the following work? (please, please...)

                        Opinions/Advice on Do/Should I replace ALL Electrolytic Capacitors on old equipment?
                        by RetroComputingGrotto
                        I've just been repairing some (very) old speakers with a loud hum that occurred as soon as you powered them on regardless if any actual audio is played through them. I work in a School so it's 99% likey that the Teachers have hardly ever turned the power off on them for well over 10+ years.



                        As you can see the top large capacitor on the right has a bulge on the top so defincately needs replacing. As the one next to it is exactly the same capacity and voltage I planned to replace them both.


                        What is your advice/opinion on whether or not on old(er)...
