    where to get capacitors?

    Hi,

    i've got gx270 mboard, which has 5 or 6 capacitors which should be replaced. I tried searching for replacing capacitors. I can, of cause, order kit, but I don't need whole kit. Do you know where can I order capacitors? What would be p/n?

    Thanks.

    You should replace all the caps on that motherboard, but if you don't want to and in the US or Canada, contact Topcat anyway to see what he can do for you. If you are anywhere else, contact Big Pope.

        They have some, but not all you might need. Its always fun to hunt for them, though.

          so far i need only 6pcs of 6.3V, 1800uF (perhaps, 1500uF will work as well)

            Damn HNs. You should be able to find those at Digikey or Mouser. I would stick Dell with it, they are use to it.

              sad story about dell is, that i built this computer from leftover parts from other computers.... i knew, i should have taken different motherboard, one on second shelf, not third. I knew it!

              btw. what is HNs?

                Nichicon HN are the 1800uf caps that are bad. I checked mouser.com and if they are 8mm, no luck. I would still contact TC or Big Pope.

                    Contact Dell first. I understand they have a free board replacement program for that model if it has bad caps.

                      I get almost everything from Digikey. If you call them, often they will refer you to another business that has the parts they don't stock.
