Here's an old MSI BX3 dually slot-1 motherboard with fried caps... This came out of a server for rebuild, far less than the replacement/upgrade cost would have been despite its age.
The bad caps are 'Chhsi' brand (no surprise). This board required a bunch of caps! I ended up replacing 37 caps total. It now works perfect, which in turn will make its owner happy.
Caps replaced as listed:
(6) 1500uF 10v 10mm
(15) 1500uF 6.3v 10mm
(16) 1000uF 6.3v 8mm (I used 10v replacements)
