Re: panasonic fm failure in 5 minutes!
Yeah, it's a shame they didn't learn it sooner. They still have G-Luxons as the smallest caps, but those shouldn't be an issue. I believe bad caps should be a recall issue, but I know that'll never happen...
My video card was lucky, too. All Matsushita there. (Sapphire x1600Pro AGP)
My next power supply, if all goes well, will be an Antec. New and unused for $30, you get the idea...Well, I'd better start practicing recapping now, got an old Sparkle (Teapos throughout) I could try it on...Have to leech from a Newton Power (good caps but useless) though, also not a problem. Those and Astecs, both from old Gateways, seem to grow on trees here.
Yes, i know I should use new caps, and I will for important projects, don't worry!
