I have to replace some caps on my motherboard.
They are 1500uf 10v 10Wide x 20Long 105degrees C made by Sam Young.
I have my choice to replace them with United Chemi-Con KY series 1500uf 10v 10Wide x 25 Long 105 degrees C
Or
United Chemi-Con LXY series 1500uf 10v 10Wide x 30Long 105degrees C.
The KY series are rated Endurance with ripple current: 4000 to 10,000 hours at 105degrees C. The LXY series are rated Endurance with ripple current: 2000 to 8000 hours at 105degrees C.
What would be the best, last the longest?
I have heard that the ones with the longer cases last longer, but the shorter KY series are rated better than the longer LXY series. The KY series were cheaper than the LXY series at DigiKey. If they are better, why would they be cheaper?
BTW, I have no restrictions on the length, either size will fit.
