    Hi everyone,

    I am just curious to find out whether anyone in the forum
    has this motherboard?

    So, far in my experience, I have not seen a leaking OST caps.
    So, I need to know whether it is worthwhile of replacing them
    in terms of long usage in a hot environment.

    Asrock G31M-GS is using the following electrolytic capacitors:

    1 piece of OST 16v 470uf-----> Not sure want to replace it or not, although it is listed as bad caps?

    10 pieces of OST 6.3v 1000uf -----> Not sure want to replace it or not, although it is listed as bad caps?

    4 pieces of KZG 16v 1000uf-----> planning to remove it and replace with Rubycon ZLH series from RS components.

    Any advice?

    Thank you.

    I just posted some pictures, and see is there anyone can
    advice me whether I need to replace those OST caps.





    The KZG 16v 1000uf Chemicon caps will be replaced with the Rubycon 16v ZLH series 1000uf

      Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
      by momaka
      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).

      It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

      Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
      by eryjus
      Hello,

      First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

      I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

      I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

      Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
      by Paxman_Swede
      Hello!

      I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

      The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

      I have studied the board and...

      Asrock DeskMeet return of the bad caps
      by BigTroll
      I have had good luck with asrock products but with that said I ordered a DeskMeet X300 to use up some other components I had laying around Ryzen 3600 GTX 1060. it comes with a 500w power supply built by CWT.

      I thought CWT would use good components but no the primary cap was ChengX and the secondary had lots of chengx and JunFu caps. hope it lasts awhile. I do have a 450w SFX silverstone with teapos on the secondary I could replace it with.

      Help with switching power supply caps
      by captain150
      I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
      I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...
