I have noticed that my ASUS mobo has infamous Nippon KZG caps and one of them is bulging which means that others are soon to follow, also the PSU powering it Chieftec 360W has 2 leaked capacitors Jepon CE-LE. I would have thrown out the PSU but because it is very rare to find one with powerful 5V line and 20 Pin I am going to fix it. Both of this are for retro PC so not used quite often. Both caps have following rating: 6.3V 3300uF 105 C. As for size Jepons are 10 mm x 25 mm, while KZG are 10mm x ~22,5 mm which seems odd size for capacitor. PSU caps can't be higher than 25 mm since there is barely any space left already.
I have read forum looking for replacement and many people recommended Rubycons / Nippon Chemi-con / Panasonic or Nichicon. I have found these Rubycon MCZ https://allegro.pl/oferta/kondensato...-10-7303193344 . I heard that these are discounted and there is mostly fake floating around, can the ones I listed are also fake?
I looked on RS online for caps but they have these:
Nichicon VY , VZ
Rubycon PX
Panasonic NHG type A, FR type A
Not the widely recommended MBZ, MCZ, HM, HN etc. Are these caps also worth the money? Can I use same cap on both the motherboard and PSU?
