      FZ= lytics that look like polys
      - Correct - And it seems they did it on purpose.
      There are Blue marked Sacon FZ that look like UCC Poly
      There are also Black marked Sacon FZ that look like Nichicon Poly.

      Note: We need to say "Sacon FZ" in the future to avoid confusion.
      [As opposed to just "FZ".]
      - Though I haven't seen any 'in the wild', there are other brands with an FZ series

      Notes to the newbies:
      Both Lytics and Polys can come with or without plastic sleeves.
      That is just the marking method.
      Says nothing about the kind of cap they are.
      .
      It used to be that only Lytics had vents. [Except for Fujitsu Polys.]
      That isn't true anymore.
      - I'm seeing Polys with vents from several manufacturers now.
      My guess is they are using one kind of can for both to reduce manufacturing costs.
      .

      - We should be more concerned about the Intellectual Climate.

        So I finished recapping this board using Nichicon HN (new production).

        Board works fine -BUT- the CPU fan constantly speeds up and slows down. Sounds like a wind blowing on a winter night. I configured cool n quiet and smart fan in the BIOS. Temps are 40C. Any idea how to get this to run at a constant speed?? The fan idle speed was set to 30C, I upped it to 40c but that had no effect.
