Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

OST are all RLS
TK's are ATWB for the 6.3v 1800uf & ATWY for th 16v 1800uf
G-lux are SM (approx 8mm x 13mm) all same size.

How would I test to see if the Vcore is in parellel

Just upgrade the Vcore to poly. (Would it be worth it to do the whole board?)

I do not know if #3 is in Vcore or not.

I did get a reply from C_hegg on what he used on his board.

NHN 1800@6.3 8 x 20Nichicon 1800uf 6.3v 8mm HN series
NHZ 1800@16 10 x 25 Nichicon 1800uf 16v 10mm HZ series
NHM 1000@6.3 8x11 1000uF 6.3v 8mm HM series
NHN 470@16 8x13 470uF 16v 8mm HN series
United Chemi-Con 820uF 2.5v 8mm Polymer Capacitor

How would I test to see if the Vcore is in parellel
I do not know if #3 is in Vcore or not.

Resistance checks.
[If] + is connected to + [and] - is connected to - [then] they are in parallel.
-
That Vcore row are all in parallel.
What I need to know if is #3 is in parallel with them.

Need to know where you want to buy from so I can see what they have in stock.
I recommend Badcaps.net or Mouser.com for this set of caps unless you want to buy from multiple places.

I'll be back a bit later.
Need to do some family stuff.

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

I do not think the cap in group #3 is in the Vcore here is exactly what Hegg said
For the 16v 1800uF Caps (there are 3 of them), use these
For the row of 7 caps next to the CPU (a mix of polys and electrolytics), use these (it is a tight squeeze getting them in as their legs are slightly thicker, but they do work)
For the other 1800uF 6.3v caps (I think there are 4 or 5), use these
For all the 1000uF 6.3v caps, use these
for all the 470uF 16v caps, use these

G-Luxon SM are GP caps. Replacing them with HN is -extreme- over-kill.
If you like that idea then use his list.
It's over-kill but obviously will at least work on that board so go for it.

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

PCBONEZ I just want to get it right and do the job correctly. I do not know how to test the cap in #3 to see if it is in parallel. I do know why u ask the questions you do, to get the job correct so there are no problems down the road.

After a few distractions here I'm back to working out a list.

Thank you very much PCBONEZ, I will post a list of what I am ordering just to make sure I got it right.

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

Looks right.

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

Got the caps but using a 25 watt iron is not enough to get the caps out without a struggle, so what is a good wattage iron to use? 40, 60?

[PCBONEZ]

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

Most people prefer a 50-60 watt.

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

thanks Bonez! BTW How you doing?!

[bruferrit]

Re: need a lil advice on recapping ECS HP MCP61PM-HM

ok Update, on this MB, Finally got a Soldering iron station and swapped out all the caps listed above. It is now up and running like a champ w/ 4gigs ram and a single core AMD 3500+
