    need suggestion for replacing KZG caps

    I've got an IBM 8836 1U server that's shutting down abruptly;
    It has 8 Chemi-con KZG (I think) bulging around the CPU;
    3300uf 6.3v KZG (M)105c 5(7) Brown

    Being it's a 1U server, even though it's got several fans, it probably gets pretty warm.

    What do you guys suggest I replace these with?

    Nichicon HM 3300uf 6.3v will be the same size and spec.
    sig files are for morons

        Replacing all the caps on the BenQ SW2700pt's power board didn't help...
        by Noodneek
        My 3.5 years old monitor (BenQ SW2700pt) started to black out for 1-2 sec every minute or so, it was doing this even with PC disconnected from it. I searched online and read that it's probably aging capacitors and there's a workaround to lower the brightness.

        I lowered it from 100 to 65% and it indeed helped, but after a couple of months the issue returned... I continued to lower the brightness, but it helped only for a couple of hours at most, then I needed to lower it further... Turning the monitor off and waiting for it to cool down also helped for a short time, after which it...

        TAGAN TG380-U01 PSU - 5v shorted after replacing caps
        by kotel studios
        Hi

        Recently I got this tagan tg380-u01 PSU with bad caps on 3.3v rail (the line was 2.5v no load!). Replaced them but no go, so I've replaced all of them, apart from some smaller ones and one under the secondary heatsink. Even that didn't help so I've replaced the others. All caps are known good ones.

        Powered it on and heard the breaker pop. Opened it up and saw some smaller caps shorted together. Fixed that up but still it trips breakers. Now I get 0ohms from 5v to GND. Secondary heatsink removed and still a short, even with the PWM IC board removed. All diodes on that...

        are these caps good for replacing the ones in front of the cpu/gpu on an original xbox?

        are what​ i used because i had heard the voltage doesn't matter as long as it is more than the original cap. i'm now reading that high voltage may make the cap's esr too high. is this a good cap for replacing those oem ones?

        Replacing caps in an old speaker system. Should I use a higher value here?
        by Delicieuxz
        I'm recapping an old Creative Labs / Cambridge speaker system / subwoofer. At 4:33 in this video, the person looking at what he says are the speaker caps in the system says they are 470 uF, and that he'd use much larger caps if he was building it.

        https://youtu.be/1LRIzePlma0?t=273

        I'm wondering if I should use something larger for the recap job, and what using larger caps will do for it.

        Would 680uF be good value to try in place of the 470uF originals?

        Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
        by Paxman_Swede
        Hello!

        I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

        The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

        I have studied the board and...
