Asrock G41M-VS3 is using SAMXON caps

[liukuohao]

Hi All,

I would like to know whether my Asrock G41M-VS3 motherboard
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/G41M-VS3/
is using bad capacitors or not.

It has a lot of the SAMXON caps which is rated as 1000uf 6.3v.

I could not find this SAMXON caps from the bad caps list.
So, I suspect they are not the best and may be not the worst caps.

Heat is a major concern with me, since I am living in a hot and humid
country that cannot afford to turn ON air condition all the time 24/7
just to cool off PC running non-stop as NAS server.

Any advice will be most appreciated.

Thank you.

If you'd look at what Topcat has to sell, you might notice that he sells Samxon capacitors.

In that being said, I don't think you should have any concerns as they wouldn't sell any capacitors of that nature if they were inferior.

Topcat is quoted as calling them as "'middle grade'", just so you know.
