    Agreed. Also, don't Auction them off, since you might get complaints when they fail after a month's use. Just blow them up. Sacon FZ should NEVER under ANY circumstances be sold, purchased, or used in any devices
    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

            Ok, I will get a few of these. And I might still auction the FZ's with all the warnings I have heard and with what I learned about them here. Maybe someone will want something to blow up lol.
            I have the replacement heatsink and fan for the 8800GT graphics card now so a long session of desoldering and soldering is getting closer to happening for me.
            Thank you all for all your help it is appreciated.

                Last thought _ I just cant stop searching for the perfect capacitor lol. Is this Rubycon MCZ ok. It has a ripple of around 2450?

                    A ruby MCZ would be an excellent replacement. I've used them to replace FZs on other cards before.

                        Ok. This is fantastic, thanks very much. I am glad I could wait long enough to find something worthwhile to put on the card.
                        Thanks everyone
                        I will post after the repair.

                            I have not repaired the card yet but I can't stay away.....I just bought the MCZ repalcement capacitor and a few spares of the same for a few dollars and a replacement heatsink and fan and will soon repair the 8800GT card. Then I can get on with repairing a few motherboards another graphics card and two HP L1955 LCD monitors which already bought the capacitors for. I think I might buy only L1955 monitors if those two repairs work ok.
