Standard Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors are not suitable for rapid charge and discharge applications. Consult with Ltec about specially designed capacitors for rapid charge and discharge

what is their connection with Ltec then.

FUH YIN has a very poorly designed website. They also have many mistakes in their English too on their website.

willawake, is FUH YIN going on the list of bad cap brands?

I just purchased two of these HP X4000 units and from what I'm reading, I think I know why I got them so cheap!

I noticed on both systems that the caps on the memory board (the same exact ones that you have in your hand) have bloated tops and some of the material from inside has pushed up thru the top. One in particular had a large chunk of white crust on top. Before I go and finish building up these units... what am I looking at here? What should I do about these caps? I'm not an electronics guy so can I have these replaced pretty inexpensively and what caps do I need?

Sorry for so many questions... I want to make sure these systems are repaired if that's what needs to happen.

Thanks in advance for any good advice.

Re: hp workstation x4000 fuh yin?

Could you tell me what you replaced those bad ones with? Same ratings, type, size, etc? I see an earlier comment about "not suitable for rapid charge and discharge". Did you go with anything different other than brand?

Thanks.

1000 10v? replace them with 1000 6.3 or 10v from the good caps list section 3 of the faq. try to find 8mm width for convenient placement
