Yet another capacitor-related commonly failed Abit board, the SE6... This board has a quantity of 18 - 1500uF 6.3v caps that fail. I've seen some with JPCON and others with Teyah.


Ok, when at all possible, I don't recap a board using 8mm caps. In some cases, the use of 10mm replacement caps is just not possible, but this board is not one of those. Yes, the 10mm caps fit a little tightly, but in the end, it will look and work perfectly.



I've had a few emailing me about 10mm caps in place of 8mm, mostly associated with the BP6, which I always use 10mm caps in. This board is no different.
