Doesn't really make much sense to overclock retro motherboards and CPUs, except for the thrill of it I guess.
If you need something faster, you just use or buy something a bit faster

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
Well, then lets call them high End Boards instead of Overclocking Boards...
Though only a couple are sought after. Like the mentioned Abit, but also many DFI Boards are wanted...Leave a comment:

Overclocking mainboards, cool
I've never dared to overclock anything, LOL.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
I'm thinking "P12343-ND" and "P15335CT-ND" ... I just chose the most expensive, LOL.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
OK I measured them :
16v = 10.3mm diameter (approx) and 21.3 tall (approx)
6.3v = 10.1 diameter (approx) and 16mm tall (approx)
I don't think height is a concern.
Here is the selection of 16v :

Here is the selection of 6.3v :

Can you guys make a recommendation ?Leave a comment:

Mainboards from 2001 have value ? I'll take a look.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
Yes I intend to clean it. it is just dusty from being used back in the day, then set aside. I belonged to my meanest aunt, LOL.
Do you have anything particular in mind for cleaning it ? I was just going to use compressed air or rubbing alcohol.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
It would be a good idea to completely clean that board BEFORE you start removing old caps and soldering new caps.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
w00t
I think I need to measure the height, diameter, and Lead Spacing ... of each capacitor (once removed). Then ..
9 caps, 6.3V 1500uF = "polymer" @ the measured size.
and
4 caps, 16V 1500uF = "panasonic FM or FR series" @ the measured size.
... That may be all I need to know to order new caps

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
We all started somewhere
In my case takin shit apart a blowing it up, but in hindsight, not the best place to start.

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
the 6.3v caps i would use polymer ones, the 16v ones i would use panasonic FM or FR series.Leave a comment:

Re: Capacitor Replacement - Quick Question
I realize the board has basically no value, but I have a bunch of old socket A processors ... So ... Why not fix it ? LOL.Leave a comment:

Good day!
I have a Samson Resolv studio monitor that has no sound output. I've opened it up and found two caps that are bulging on what I believe to be the power supply section of the amplifier board. The board is marked Resolv 65A AMP V1.2. The caps in question are YUSCON, 2200uF, 35V, 85C temp and have markings of RA(P) and are 16mm x 25.5mm tall. I've attached the schematic and the caps in question are C5 and C6. I'm assuming they are low esr caps. I've tested both caps and they test low uF, nowhere near 2200uF.
I'm going to replace the caps and I'll be the first... -
Hi everyone,
There actually was a time when early SMPS and late bakelite housed electrolytic caps coexisted in high end industrial gear. A friend of mine just got himself a CNC milling machine form that time with its first set of now 41 year old caps still installed in the PSU... and it's malfunctioning.
Two of the caps have already leaked slightly onto the board. I have not desoldered or measured any so far but they should qualify for replacement.
Now I'm wondering what to put in there as a replacement. First idea was state of the art low-ESR Nippon KY,... -
I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.
For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).
https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3591771
https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3591772
It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

Hello,
So, pulled a motherboard out from storage, was working when put away, wont post when I took it out of storage today.
Since it was working, and it looks to be essentially time that killed it I figured its a good idea to replace the caps before digging further.
Looks to be only good quality caps on this board, so might not be the issue. But it is closing in on 20 years now so, wont hurt i guess
Its a ASUS P5VDZ-MX board.
I would really appreciate some assistance on what the best replacement caps would be for these:

Hallo,
i want to replace two smoothing caps from a heating controller PSU. They are probably 30 years old and it might be time to replace them.
SXE 470uF 63V 105°C (tested: 472uF 0.35Ohm) --> Nichicon VY 105°C - 463uF 0.15Ohm
SXE 470uF 25V 105°C (tested: 422uF 0.63Ohm) --> Samwha K5A 85°C - 446uF 0.10Ohm (or Panasonic RAD FC 470/25 8mm)
I couldn't find anything about 'SXE'. That's the only declaration on the caps. Edit: The top/bottom ident says Nippon CC.
Nichicon should be 'VY' series (linked).
I couldn't find anything about Samwha...
