Help Identifying Polymers (I hope)

[cruzinforit]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a little help identifying the mfr of the caps on a couple of my motherboards. First is the ones on my ASUS P8Z68-V Pro. They appear to be FPCAP which would imply either fujitsu or Nichicon. I just want to confirm.

The others I can't really find much on, they are on my ASRock B75M motherboard which is in my server. Below are the pics, and links to fullsize. Any help you can provide is appreciated. Thanks!

They're all made by Nichicon.
The ones with FP are from the "functional polymer" family, nichicon bought fujitsu a long time ago and they're made by nichicon

The ones with CP are Nichicon CP series, they don't show up on their website, it's probably a custom order for Asus or sold only to some manufacturers like Asus, Gigabyte etc.

Asus usually uses Apaq for most motherboards, at least they used to lately.

Thanks, I figured as much for the ASUS, but there weren't enough markings on the ASRock CP ones to go on. I was a bit nervous because they look somewhat similar to the infamous Sacon electrolytics packaged in polymer shells.

Haha yeah, I'm not sure that the sacon FZ caps are made anymore.
You can see these polymer caps don't have the vent scoring on the top. Although, I think there was someone who had ventless FZ?
Ah yeah, here!:
