Re: Fixed FX 5200
Nich VR are 85*C General purpose caps, and are totally unsuitable for use on a GPU.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

Re: Fixed FX 5200
Really? The one on the back there is a nichicon VR and it came stock on the card so I figured it would be alright to use them. Are they unsuitable because of ESR or because they are rated at 85C?Originally posted by c_hegge View PostComment

Re: Fixed FX 5200
Both. If the manufacturer used an 85*C cap, they should be shot.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: Fixed FX 5200
Hmmm, okay. Yeah that 100uF 10V cap in the back that came on the card is an 85C VRComment

Re: Fixed FX 5200
It's probably in a non-critical area, which is why they got away with it, but the skywells are in the VRM, where GP caps are not suitable.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: Fixed FX 5200
Then, again its a passively cooled card which was probably meant for a low-performance system. It's not unrealistic to put an 85 in there, but just one hot summer and your nephew coming over to try and play a 3D game the system can't really handle, and... Well you know.Originally posted by c_hegge View PostPresonus Audiobox USB, Schiit Magni 3, Sony MDR-V700Comment

Re: Fixed FX 5200
They should be shot for using 'lytics on a video card in the first place. At least ASUS has a clue (yay for FPCAP!).Originally posted by c_hegge View PostComment
