    MSI custom FPCAP's capacitors?

    I bought this motherboard: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus, I realized that I was wearing these capacitors, I would swear that they are FPCAPS by numbering and letters, is it possible that it is custom? I have never seen them in this style (the FP next to the voltage), nor can I find a fact sheet about them.

      Thank you, I imagined it, because the nippon chemicon that I have seen in MSI cannot find their datasheets either.
      Now I know they are FPCAP'S, I can be calm xD.

        i am calm,
        i have not seen polymers fail and arent concerned who makes them.
        electrolytics are a different matter - i only want Panasonic, Rubycon and Nichicon in my stuff!

          I agree , polymers are not something that spoils like electrolytics, but since I can choose, I prefer that these be manufactured under Japanese formulas, such as FPCAP'S.
          I do not deny that there are other brands such as Apaq that manufacture decent polymers, the gray Apaq capacitors are giving very good reliability. (I don't know the series), I've seen it exceed 40,000h.

          And I also prefer electrolytics capacitors panasonic, Nichicon, and nippon chemicon, for me they are the best. Although there is another brand (this is for economic capacitors) that I like for its decent quality, which is EPCOS and are widely used in automotive, these are surviving extreme conditions.

            Asus X570-P identifying potential missing SMD
            by plummmm
            I am trying to identify a potential missing component from an Asus X570-P motherboard. I could not find a boardview for that exact motherboard, but I did find one for the X570-Pro here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...prime-x570-pro

            The component missing on my board I believe is a small 3 pin device above the Nuvoton Super IO. The X570-Pro uses a similar Nuvoton and there's a similar looking SMD just...

            After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
            by dragon3x
            Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
            power on.

            Here are some examples :

            (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
            switching supply area).
            (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
            than 6.3 V.)

            1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
            I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
            3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...

            ASUS TUF X570-PLUS doesn't power on: no VRM_EN signal.
            by ShadowAi
            Hello, I have an issue with the motherboard. Specifically, it doesn't power on, more precisely, the POST initialization doesn't occur.

            Let me start from the beginning, the motherboard suddenly stopped working one day. There are no beep signals from the speaker, and the debug LEDs are not lighting up. After inspecting it under a microscope and using thermal imaging, I didn't find anything that could be damaged.

            After that, I began voltage measurements, in which I noticed the absence of VDDQ, VDDP, VTT, and VPP lines. Later, I checked if there is an EN state on these lines,...

            AA and AAA battery charger capacitors?
            by slybunda
            hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
            it has inside:
            2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
            2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

            not heard of these brands are they any good?

            iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...
