Abit KN8 Ultra not good...
Arrrrrrgh!!! And I thought Abit stopped using caps from companies other than Rubycon (except the ECS made ones). My KV7 has nothing but Rubycons. My old TX5 has Teapos (at the VRM) and other bad brands (STILL works to this day). But my KN8 Ultra has NO Rubycons to speak of!
Quick list of caps:
7-10 Panasonic and 1 OST RLS @ the CPU VRM
17 OST RLS @ the vMem and the 24-pin power connector
3 OST RLX next to the nForce4 chipset
2 Teapos (one between PCI slots 2 and 3, and the other between the PCIe x16 and PCIe x1 slot)
Any others I might've missed are probably OST RLS
Now if I only had the mad soldering skillz... I sense the caps may be de-cap-itated sooner than expected
