    Intel D915GUX

    I recently picked up an Intel D915GUX with a 3Gz P4. Seems like a good board from what I researched, but since its a few years old would you guys recommend recapping the whole board? (At present none appear to be "visually" distressed BTW)...thanks.

      Intel boards rarely need recapped.

      Exceptions are:
      - Any with the problem Nichicon HN or HM series caps with date codes from 2001 thru 2004.
      - They used Chemicon KZG or KZJ. [Which they rarely do.]
      - When they used 85C caps for the little 4 and 5 mm caps.

      - We should be more concerned about the Intellectual Climate.

          I've never EVER seen that and I've been using Intel boards since the 90's.
