Value of a Capacitor?

[heavyice]

I have a Dell MIG41R and there is one capacitor missing. Can anyone plz. tell me the value of that capacitor. It is located just near the ATX Connector and is green in color.

Re: Value of a Capacitor?

The capacitor is Sanyo WG (or something very similar, perhaps WC or something custom for Dell) series but from the picture I can't tell the capacitance. I tried other google search results and no luck.

However, based on the location and the size compared to other capacitors it should be 2200-3300 uF 16v. I would use a 2200uF 16v low esr capacitor, perhaps a Nichicon HM or Nichicon HN series capacitor.

You're in India so it's a bit expensive to order from Badcaps store or US stores... try to recycle one from another motheboard if you can, but don't buy some cheap chinese capacitor to put there... it really must be a high quality one (low esr, high current etc)

Thanks for the quick reply. I will try that and would rather find it on a branded MOBO.
