    need help identifying caps on video card evga 9600gt low power

    i attached a pic of the item in question. i managed to partly identify the caps as possibly being samcon eps series poly caps but i am unable to find a picture of those caps to confirm it.

    if those are indeed samcon poly caps, are they reliable good caps? i hear lots of stories of bad samcon caps in tvs and psus... tho those could be just the electrolytic ones.

      They're Elcon. Don't know if their polymers are reliable or not, but their electrolytics suck.

          polymers tend to be reliable depending on the brand, if it was teapo poly i would be ok with that than this brand. Though if it was me i would replace them all with ucchemicon poly's
          Yes i love Nichicon MUSE Audio Capacitors...they would look awesome all over any motherboard

              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...

              EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP 256MD2 [256-A8-N542-T2] with bad caps - fixed
              by momaka
              I did it again – I had to fulfill my inner desire to fix yet another old piece of hardware. This one is actually kind of worthwhile, too – it’s an EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP video card, model P/N: 256-A8-N542-T2. With the popularity of “retro” PCs from the Win9x to XP era going up, and the diminishing supply of decent AGP cards, it is expected their prices will go up. Or is it? I bought the this video card rather on the cheap side (~$9 USD shipped to my door), because the eBay seller listed it for parts or repair (and correctly noted the bad capacitors.)

              So, here is the...

              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:

              Assistance with identifying replacement caps on ASUS P5VDZ-MX
              by crosswinds
              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:

              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."
