I have an Abit KT7A-RAID Mobo with a few bad caps that I need to get back into service ASAP. The caps in question are Teapo 2200uf 6.3v. I have some older Mobos that I use for practice and can get a number of Rubicon 2200uf 16v caps. Can I go up on the voltage that much and be OK?

Re: Substitutions
In short, you can go up in voltage. It is no problem. The only problem that may occur is that the 16V capacitors will be larger...will they fit in the spots you wish to place them in?
Also ensure that the capacitors you get are Low ESR capacitors and not General Purpose capacitors.
