    Jetway 650DF 16 bulged/oozing GSC caps

    Jetway 650DF is a P4 Socket 478 small footprint MoBo. It died because of 16 bulged caps, 4 of them oozing. Two large bulging caps by the ferrire cores are marked GSC 2200micF 16V. Medium caps by the CPU/VGA/DDR sockets are marked GSC 1500micF 6.3V.

      I am shocked... okay not really . GSC are known to be crap. Replace them all.
      Speaking of which, what series are they? ME? RE? (should be a 2 or 3 -letter code written on them)

      Also, is this motherboard from a Shuttle PC? It has a very interesting form factor.

          I recently got my hands on a Jetway board which was full of GSCs. They had failed, but the previous owner had pushed the tops down, although obviously, that doesn't fix them. It worked like a charm after replacing them with Panny FJs.

          EDIT: Are you planning on repairing the board? If so, list the cap values if you want me or another member to help you source suitable replacements.

          I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

          No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

              All the GSC need to go.
              There are around 10 possible series. All should be two letter codes.
              If you can provide the series names I probably have the data sheets on file to find the specs for proper replacements.

                  Early on when they only had two series GSC didn't mark the series code.
                  They were either RE or LE. One was green, the other black.
                  I never remember which was which without looking in my old notes.

                  If you have Sacon or Evercon those are just GSC with a new company name.
                  GSC were so sh*tty they actually had to change their name twice.

                      Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
                      by eryjus
                      Hello,

                      First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

                      I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

                      I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
                      ...

                      Help with switching power supply caps
                      by captain150
                      I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                      I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...

                      Gigabyte GA-6OXT :: caps question
                      by Foetuss
                      Good evening

                      I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
                      Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

                      But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
                      Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...

                      EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP 256MD2 [256-A8-N542-T2] with bad caps - fixed
                      by momaka
                      I did it again – I had to fulfill my inner desire to fix yet another old piece of hardware. This one is actually kind of worthwhile, too – it’s an EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP video card, model P/N: 256-A8-N542-T2. With the popularity of “retro” PCs from the Win9x to XP era going up, and the diminishing supply of decent AGP cards, it is expected their prices will go up. Or is it? I bought the this video card rather on the cheap side (~$9 USD shipped to my door), because the eBay seller listed it for parts or repair (and correctly noted the bad capacitors.)

                      So, here is the...

                      Replacement caps for Samson Resolv studio monitor 65A Amp board.
                      by black6host
                      Good day!

                      I have a Samson Resolv studio monitor that has no sound output. I've opened it up and found two caps that are bulging on what I believe to be the power supply section of the amplifier board. The board is marked Resolv 65A AMP V1.2. The caps in question are YUSCON, 2200uF, 35V, 85C temp and have markings of RA(P) and are 16mm x 25.5mm tall. I've attached the schematic and the caps in question are C5 and C6. I'm assuming they are low esr caps. I've tested both caps and they test low uF, nowhere near 2200uF.

                      I'm going to replace the caps and I'll be the first...
