It originally came from an HP Media Center. I'm hoping someone can help me to locate these caps or equivalent replacements? There are 10 on the board altogether. last powered on it even still posts and such but Vista gave a bsod. I replaced the guy's board and kept this one so It would be awesome to replace the caps and use it! Any help I do much appreciate! Thx!

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
They look to me like 8mm diameter. Rubycon MBZ and MCZ would be suitable replacements. Make sure to know how many of each capacitance/voltage you need. You should be able to get caps from TC, owner of badcaps.net.
You'll want to measure the diameter to make sure though, as well as the height, and any height restrictions that there might be, and also the lead spacing. TC should be able to hook you up with whatever you need.
Good luck!

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
This is a year later but just wanted to let everyone know I am experiencing the same problem with these capacitors. I would experience freezups and restarts and bsods in vista and w7. Sometimes scans would go for hours of memory or backups but other times i would freeze every 2 minutes. Tried everything I could think of software wise and even swappin out parts PS graphics HD.. and did notice these caps bulkin at top, no leaks but very frustrating problem. We mustve got a bad batch.

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
I've seen bad TK caps as well on an ECS board. I consider them as a bad brand, Just like Chemi-con KZG and Nichicon HM and HM. Just because a cap came from japan doesn't mean it will be reliable.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
if the caps are bulging up in the center, then most likely they are bad. one other thing to check, make sure that all your fans are working and nothing is clogged up of blocking air from getting through. If any parts are overheating, it can cause the same problem.

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
Same board, same caps, same problem. 3 TKs are bulged. Two near the PCI-E slot and one between the RAM slots and CPU socket.
This board has already been given a partial recap. I replaced the 3 1800uF 16V TK caps with 1500uF Ruby MBZ and the 1000uF OST RLS caps with Sanyo WG.
I've ordered more caps to replace the rest. The 470uF 16v caps (currently G-Luxon) will be replaced with MBZ. The 4 1800uF caps on the VRM out will be replaced with 820uF Nichicon LF Polys (like the other polys on it) and the other 1800uF caps will be replaced with MCZ.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

I got fedup with mine sitting in the corner and randomly decided to order some polymers. I replaced every one of the 1800uf Tk's with (they are LG and either 820 or 1000uf) but I've not tested stability yet, I probably will sometime this week though and I'll let ya'll know.

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
I've recapped mine. I ended up going with Panny FJ for the non-VRM 1800uF caps (a bit cheaper). It's been running in memtest all night now (15 Hours, 54 minutes and 38 seconds to be precise). 34 passes and still no problems yet.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
Where can I get the replacement caps? I just ran into a friends' computer with 5 bad ones, an HP Pavilion a6357c with a MCP61PM-HM (Nettle2) motherboard. I haven't yet taken it apart to see which values they are, but they all seem to be the same type, like the row near the CPU.
I was trying to find a replacement board, but they're hard to find. A different board that may fit could be around 60-130$. I've recapped an ECS board many year ago, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
Does anyone know if the badcaps store MCP61SM-GM kit would work the same?Last edited by Pro289; 02-16-2011, 09:53 PM.

Re: ECS mcp61pm-hm 6-bad 1800uf 63 Tk caps
Well, success! I've purchased replacement caps from this website.
All went okay. A little difficulty in clearing the holes of solder after removing the bad caps.
I ended up using a 0.65mm drill bit to do the job.
My HP Pavilion a6357c is back to life! Prime95 now runs stable.
Thanks BadCaps.net!
