    Eupa/PC Chips Model 'IBB' - Bad Caps

    This is one of those goofy off-brands AKA PC Chips... They're a real whore to identify sometimes... Anyway, one crossed my path, and there's no doubt what's wrong with it... The caps are branded 'Lelon', which is a familiar face in the bad capacitor realm... :roll: :evil:







    After recapping, working like a champ... The owner had a P3 1.13GHz Tualatin CPU with a Slotket... Talk about squeezing every last booger outta this baby! I have to admit, I booted it up on Knoppix, and it was a really snappy and stable board! Gotta love new caps!

      those rubycon MBZ or MCZ they so pretty.

      you know the little chhsi caps which you left, they look like they are doing a bulge at 4 places between the vents. i see that a lot with the little caps. are they like that because they are failing a bit or is that what they always look like cos the vents are pushed down when they make them?

      i have some boards with rubycon for the major caps but all the little caps look like that. prolly not worth recapping right?

          Just archiving everything related to bumpgate since most stuff has disappeared from Google. Maybe people will finally take the time to read some of it and stop shouting "reflow gpu" at every occasion but rather try to understand what the real issue is…
          Interesting parts about the failure analysis are "Why Nvidia's chips are defective" and "Why Nvidia's duff chips are due to shoddy engineering"


          May complete this post at a later date with more details.
          Basically issue is a combination of thermal dissipation of the chip with hotspot,...

          Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
          by momaka
          I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

          For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

          https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3591772

          It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

          Best place to source RAM chips? 8GB 820-00850 boards to 16GB or 32GB
          by ugamazing
          I'm looking to upgrade several 8GB 820-00850 boards to 16GB or 32GB for personal use. I am curious what the best practice and process is for sourcing new replacement chips, and what vendor(s) you guys prefer? Another question is, how do I find compatible chips and their corresponding part/model numbers? For example, in the 820-00850 schematic, the DDR chip U2600 model listed (EDFB232A1MA) corresponds to 1x32GB chip. Of course, I would need 4x8GB chips to replace the 4x2GB chips currently on the board. How do I find compatible 8GB chips? Is it as simple as searching "BGA178 8GB 2133"...

          Problem

          This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

          Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
          by eryjus
          Hello,

          First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

          I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

          I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
