Could some check to see if I am ordering the right ones?

There are so many choices on each page....I AM SO CONFUSED!!!!

Re: Am I on the right track?

The first and third links, both for Nichicon PW series parts are probably OK. The second link is for a VZ series part, which is not a good choice for motherboard VRM filtering or P/S O/P filtering. Look for low impedance (sometimes called low ESR) series parts, for example:

Nichicon PW or HE

Panasonic FC or FM

United Chemicon LXV, LXY, LXZ, KY, or KZE

These are all available from Digi-Key. Rubycon has good parts too (ZL, ZLH come to mind, though there are other series that are favored here abouts), but I don't know what disties carry them. Topcat, who owns this site, seems to offer a fair amount of Rubycon product.

Re: Am I on the right track?

another problem that I see is that on digikey they don't seem to list the size...???

Re: Am I on the right track?

Here are the Digi-Key catalog pages for lytics. The charts for the different series include the dimensions.

Re: Am I on the right track?

this whole thing just makes me worried I'd be getting the wrong ones

Re: Am I on the right track?

Yes, it's confusing, just keep your wits about you and look for low impedance/low ESR types. I'd recommend Panasonic FM and Nichicon HE. What board are you recapping?

It's an Shuttle FV25

Re: Am I on the right track?

PM Topcat for FV25 recap advice, he's done many of those. I'm not big on the SFF thing.

Re: Am I on the right track?

You can use 3300/6.3, 4700/6.3 or 5600/6.3 in place of the 3300/10 12.5. This only filters Vcore, so 10v is not required. I used Rubycon YXG 5600/6.3 on the FV-24 (where it replaced 3 x Gloria 3900/10 12.5mm), but the Nichicon PW(M) 3300/10 12.5mm is also a perfectly usable choice.

In place of the 2 x 3300/6.3 10mm (which originally was 2x2700/6.3 10mm on the FV24), I used 1x Nichicon PW(M) 3300/10 12.5mm in parallel with a Panasonic FC 1000/10 10mm - this fits and works fine.

All the 1000/10 8mm can be replaced with Rubycon YXG 1000/6.3 8mm, but there are numerous alternatives including Panasonic FK/FC etc.- 6.3v is fine for all these caps.

might just be cheaper and easier to get the kit.
