Just curious, you're on a tight budget, and you need a motherboard. Your only mobo's in your price range all have badcaps, which brand of badcaps should you shoot for if you absolutely had to buy one?

Have you been sniffin' the thermal paste remover again?
How is one to answer such a question?
First it would depend on what was there to choose from.
Second I wouldn't be leaving the bad caps. It would be getting recapped.
Third it would depend on how old (vintage) the boards are.
AND, It would depend on where on the board the craps are and which craps are where on the board. (What is in Vcore and what is scattered caps.)
I can tell you what I'd skip past first:
ANY that have even one bloated cap.
Then: GSC, JPce-xxx, Gloria, Su'scon, Stone, Choyo, Chhsi, Hermei.

good solution there!
hehe...
i recently bought new gigabyte(for customer) with i9x5(or 6 chipset...these still support dual core) and it's so damn chaeap and has solid caps around vrm and quality caps on other places, so i don't even need to think about buying something with classic lytics on critical places...
it's so cheap i was ashamed to buy it!

Re: Best of the Worst?
choyo- i have an old Gigabyte 5ax (socket 7) covered in them, none failed
teapo as well- get by until i saved 30 bucks for fresh rubys form topcat
better yet, buy a nice used one with good caps, or save up
and dont buy soyo- everything including the caps is bad quality
and i would use a speedboat to avoid gators- they would be killed if they crossed my pathsigpic
