      You'll need the low ESR ones. The 1000uF or 1200uF 6.3v (or 10v) would do if they are of good brand low ESR Japanese capacitor.

      You'll also need to inspect further, is the cap near the cpu socket? Are there any similar caps on the mobo? What is the diameter? You should replace them too if the problem sill exist after recapping. IMO your chance of success is great if the mobo still able to POST before the recapping..

      This is the caps i recommend:
      1000uF & 1200uF 8mm 10v Caps
      1000uF & 1200uF 10mm 10v Caps
      days are so short when you actually do something..

          Newbie about to dive in with the leads. Safety advice please.
          by Cappy Oligan
          I'm new to electronic repair. Trying to troubleshoot a Dell monitor that only has an AC port for power. I'm concerned about safety and not getting shocked. Should I order an isolation transformer and plug in the monitor into that and proceed with testing the board inside? Or should I get a DC power supply and limit the amps and connect the voltage to a pin somewhere inside where 19V DC is first expected? Or both? Thanks.

          SMD fuse soldering advice please
          by Ady2017
          Hi all. I need to replace an SMD fuse on my camcorder and this is the first time I have had to do any SMD soldering so your advice would be appreciated. Below is a picture of the board that I am working on and I have highlighted the fuse that needs to be replaced. I managed to zoom in to take this picture but the fuse is really tiny and is sandwiched between other components so this is going to be a new milestone for me. I appreciate that I am going to have to buy a new soldering iron if you could advice on what I need please. I was thinking about putting a big soldering iron across the whole...

          CH341 programmer advice, including jumpers seemingly reversed
          by chazzo
          I’d appreciate some very basic advice on CH341x programmers. I know this topic comes up from time to time, but stuff changes, so I hope a refresh is in order. In particular, I see some unexpected things happening with jumper positions.

          [My plan is to learn to read and write 24CO2 EEPROMs via I2C. The first target is the one in my Uni-T clamp meter, but before tackling that I have some brand-new EEPROMs to practice on.]

          I have two basic Chinese programmers. One is the blue board with a CH341A and two rows of pin headers. To my untrained eye it looks like all the others....

          Need T-Con Advice (Vizio P602ui-B3)
          by Jidis
          Hi all,

          I made a big-ass mess here of my father's beloved P602, and I'm trying to figure out if I should order a batch of overpriced ribbons or if I'd just be throwing more good money at the bad.

          He woke up recently to a bunch of white bars going down the right side of the screen. From what I'd seen in these places, I figured the T-con board has gone out or has a bad connection. I took the back off and gently poked at the socketed ribbons and sure enough, got the image back. It was mainly the far left ribbon, and it would snap back to stripes if I let off the pressure....

          by zlr8r
          Hey all, was wanting to know what cheapest option is for programming EC chips such as the MEC5107-LJ

          i searched online and found such programmers as the SVOD4, Vertyanov Successor , and the RT809h type but didn’t see this particular BGA EC chips listed? So hoping for some advice here , cheers.
