    Replacement Caps for CapXon 680uf 25V

    Hey, it's been far too long since I've done any real work with capacitors and need some guidance.
    I have a Dell LCD monitor that has stopped working and after taking it apart noticed two caps that were bulging. They are CapXon 680uf 25v. I believe they are GF series as there is a GF 105* marked on them as well and I also believe these are low impedance caps.
    I looked at some cross reference charts and found other manufacturers that are supposed to be a match, but when I look at the specs for them they say they are general electronics. I guess my question is, is it safe to put in low impedance/esr caps in anything that doesn't call for them. The cross chart showed the CpaXon GF series crossed to Panasonic FC. It looks like Panasonic low impedance caps are FM series, so I'm befuddled as to what I need to use.
    Other information I found as to Cross:
    RubyCon- ZL/ZLG
    Nichicon- PA/HD/HC
    Panasonic- FC/FK
    Lelon- RZD/RXH
    Again, what I've seen for the above, they don't appear to be low impedance.

    Any insight on a proper match is greatly appreciated.

    general recommendation is panasonic FR FM FC in that order
    Yes thare described as general purpose but are used my many members
    BUT you need to check the physical size.
    In the US usually say digikey.com

    If they dont have panasonic you can use nichicon or rubycon equivalents
    (same or better esr)
    Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

      Thanks selldoor. I know the caps are 10x20mm.
      Just wasn't sure if FM could be used in place of FC and if the cross chart was accurate with the actual crosses I found.
