I have a WinFast 6100K8MA motherboard about which I'd like some advice regarding the capacitors. The list of existing caps are as follows:
5x 3300uF 6.3v OST RLX
4x 1500uF 16v UCC KZG
2x 1000uF 10v Teapo SEK
8x 1000uF 6.3v Teapo SEK
9x 1000uF 6.3v OST RLX
1x 470uF 16v Teapo SEK
4x 100uF 16v Teapo SEK
Firstly, the two 10v Teapos only have 5v across them. So they can be grouped under the same capacitors as the 1000uF 6.3v Teapo caps, right?
Secondly, is there a difference between the OST and Teapo 1000uF caps? I know there is in spec, obviously. But what I mean is: Do you think there is a difference in how they have been used, or do you think they just mixed the two randomly? They seem to be general-purpose bypass caps dotted around the board. Can I replace all the 1000uF 6.3v caps with OST RLX equivalents (since they are the higher spec of the two caps)?
Thirdly, the replacements for which I have settled are:
Original: 3300uF 6.3v OST RLX 2780mA 14mOhm
Replacement: 3300uF 6.3v Nichicon HM 2800mA 12mOhm
Original: 1500uF 16v UCC KZG 2550mA 13mOhm
Replacement: 1500uF 6.3v Nichicon HN 2900mA 10mOhm
Original: 1000uF 6.3v OST RLX 1540mA 34mOhm
Replacement: 1000uF 6.3v Nichicon HM 1540mA 25mOhm
Original: 470uF 16v Teapo SEK 310mA ??mOhm
Replacement: 470uF 16v Rubycon YXG 840mA 87mOhm
Original: 100uF 16v Teapo SEK 110mA ??mOhm
Replacement: 120uF 16v Rubycon YXG 340mA 220mOhm
Do you agree with my choices? Pretty much just looking for reassurance. Though the last two replacements are complete thumb-suck choices.
Thanks,
