I didn't see this one here so adding it to the list. A socket motherboard around 5 years old. I cannot see any ID on the caps but they are a red / brown colour which resemble some of the pics in the hall of shame and marked as KZG.
Currently I've about 5 of them bulging their little eye out. One to the left of the sim slot, two to the left of the CPU slot (closest to the cpu), two south of the cpu slot and all 2200uf 6.3V. The others all appear ok.
On thing when looking at new caps and their lifetime rating is that I notice a lot are around 3000 hours. This doesn't seem a lot - I leave my computer running most of the time. In 24/7 terms that's only 4 months. Am I missing something here?
