    Nvidia video card capacitor identification

    I am trying to identify one of those aluminium radial electrolytics with silver case and blue polarity mark on top. There is no manufacture ID but marking says 721 100 16K. I assume it is a 100uF 16V but what is the 721? And why 16K instead of 16V? Or am I completely wrong? Capacitor is blown so can't measure it and can't remove another easily as it is a horrible 'through hole' multi layer PCB which holds on to it's components with the tenacity of my wife holding onto my wallet. Don't have facility to upload photo at the moment.
    Any info gratefully received!

    Is this by chance an older nvidia card, like a GeForce 7000 or 8000 series? It's probably a Sacon FZ capacitor, which aren't really polymers. 721 is most likely a date code. Definitely 100μF 16V. Can we see a picture?

      u dont need to use an image hosting site for the pictures just upload them here using the "manage attachments" button when u post. and yes we need more info on the card. tell us who manufactured the video card and the model/series of the video card. the stickers on the card should provide some info.

        Photo upload is an internet bandwidth problem here in Saudi a lot of the time; getting various timeout errors except for tiny file sizes. Also DSL link constantly going offline. The card is an Nvidia GF9500GS 512M DDR2 V/D/HDMI. Age unknown.

              The card is not fitted to a system at present, I am just trying to repair it for a friend. I am not looking to replace the card or upgrade, just trying to fix it.
