I used these for several years , actually until I started on motherboards. For the motherboards, I have used what was suggested here, mainly panasonics fm or fr. I used to buy from allied electronics, but they changed to a $25 minimum order last year, so I have been using digikey mostly. I don't see IC caps posted here, but they have the same ratings as most of the recommended. Are they bad or just not heavily distributed. They do have a nice competitors cross list http://www.illinoiscapacitor.com/Com...iesSearch.aspx which is searched by the maker and then the series. Just asking as I used these in crt tv's and other things with no problems. Just seeing what you guys think of them. I never got into the low esr-high ripple until joining this forum.

Re: Illinois Capacitors, Inc
Well, after digging through some post's, I see that IC is considered a second tier on the capacitor list. I used mainly general purpose before working on motherboards and didn't seem to have any problems. Guess I'll stick with the panny's for the newer tv's and computer stuff.

Hello!
I need to change the capacitors on my three original Xboxes.
Two of them are 1.6B revisions and have Hynix RAM, and the other one is a 1.6 with Samsung RAM.
The 1.6 has the infamous Nichicon HM capacitors around the CPU, which have all bulged and started to leak. This Xbox no longer powers on.
The 1.6B revisions have Rubycon MBZ capacitors that all look fine, but I’ll change them in due course. Both of these work fine.
I’ve seen some excellent threads on the forum about replacing/upgrading capacitors, but I can’t... -
Hi, I have a question regarding a motherboard with SS capacitors that I'm having trouble with. Every now and again it would give overclock failed at boot even when not overclocking.
Recently more often, and the last few weeks at every single boot. It seems like the typical capacitors needing to warm up, then everything is fine.
Weird thing is the capacitors are all solid state. Do SS capacitors degrade the same way as normal caps? Is it worth trying to recap the board?
I have already replaced the PSU.
The board is a gigabyte x79 ud3.... -
hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
it has inside:
2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon
not heard of these brands are they any good?
iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of... -
Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
power on.
Here are some examples :
(N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
switching supply area).
(N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
than 6.3 V.)
1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA... -
I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow
This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board
After all of...
