    Gigabyte 8IRX,Chemicon KY ,KZE Okay for Recap?

    I have decided to recap the P4 Gigabyte 8IRX, but i am just wonder whether it is okay to recap it using Chemicon KY or KZE capacitors.

    According to one of the disscussions in this forum, KY and KZE are ideal for PIII only.
    Is it okay to recap P4 motherboard using KY or KZE caps?

    Also, which cap is better in term of life time and ESR, Chemicon KY or KZE?

    Most P4 motherboards are desinged for lowest ESR caps, thus i would not suggest to use KZE or KY lines. For p4 i would rather use Rubycon MCZ or the equivalent ultra low esr series from other mfk. In any way, it depend on the desing of the board. The older boards, like your p3 ones, are desinged for not that low esr caps, as they wheren`t availiable at that time. Thus it is not necessary to use the lowest ESR caps with their usually very low endurance (most are 2000h@105°c).

      GIGABYTE GA-H110M-S2 - Stuck at Debug Code C2 - don't like Patriot Viper Steel RAM but works with G.SKILL
      by DynaxSC
      Hi,

      I discovered a strange behaviour of GIGABYTE GA-H110M-S2 board.

      General test conditions:
      - Tested with Core i5 6500 and Core I7 6700K - no difference
      - Default BIOS settings, but tried also altering several memory setting - does not change anything

      What is wrong:

      With BIOS F1 and F2 the board normally POST's and boots to Windows 11 with 2 x Patriot Viper Steel PVS416G440C9K RAM (4400MHZ, Samsung B-Die chips)

      When BIOS upgraded to anything above F2 (ie. F20-F27b) the board POST stucks after 3 Debug Codes on Code C2
