Is this cap real? I see no Rubycon 10x20 YXA 16v 2200uf caps on the datesheet.
Thank you to the guys at HEGE supporting Badcaps [ HEGE ] [ HEGE DEX Chart ]

Sorry MegaOne302 I missed the part "10X20".
I don't know what to say, maybe they made a mistake in the description.
AFAIK there are no 2200uF 16V with lead spacing 3.5mm and diameter 20mm even for other brands.

Some of the genuine Indonesian-made Rubycon YXGs, etc. look a lot like the ones in the pics - I'm guessing they're OK, but it's safer if they're stuck on a paper strip in a rectangular carton, or in a 200 pc. bag with Rubycon Indonesia legends on it.
Cut-lead caps or loose (unbagged) Rubies are suspect, but not necessarily fake. You'll need to do further investigation to verify them.

Opps, forgot to short the leads to zero the meter out. The 16V 1500uf MBZ now read .01/.00 ESR. Just wish there was one more digit on the display.
The Rubycon 10x20 YXA 16v 2200uf now read .07 ESR, still bad for a motherboard.Last edited by MegaOne302; 06-04-2009, 04:00 PM.

70 milliohms is about right for the 2200/16/10mm YXA - these are probably authentic, and ok for use on the VRM input (+12v) side. However, there are much better caps in similar dimensions - for instance, Panasonic FJ 1800/16/10mm with ESR ~0.02 ohms, which are better replacements for the same application.
