Real Panasonic FJ 1000uF 6.3V Capacitor?

Re: Real Panasonic FJ 1000uF 6.3V Capacitor?

I have about 50 820uF 6.3v Panny FJ series which I have pulled off fairly new ASUS motherboards. They look identical to these. The printing on the sleeves looks the same, the rubber seal is the same. I believe that these caps are genuine.

It's funny you mentioned this...

I had to RMA an Asus P5GC-MX not too long ago. It had all Panasonic caps but it had stability issues as well as power issues and I wondered if Asus had gipped me with fake Pannys. They did look genuine though, not like the ones that were posted here.

I can't test the replacement they sent me, because I have no LGA775 CPUs, but the one thing I did notice on this perhaps later revision specimen of the same model was that the itty bitty caps on it were now also pannys as opposed to OSTs or Teapos (Can't remember which) on the one I RMA'd.

They look like the real deal to me.

They look like fakes to me. The printing on the sleeves is poor, and notice how the internal part of the leads are protruding a little bit from the bunge (Like what happens when you pull on a lead too hard).

It's hard to say for sure without knowing the source, but I don't see anything that suggests these are fakes. They have the "T" vent, rubber plug matches what I've seen for 8mm diameter Panasonic. Font matches what I've seen on other FJs on motherboards.
