ASUS P5K Deluxe

[Signal]

I just picked up an ASUS P5K Deluxe which ASUS claims to have "All High-quality Conductive Polymer Capacitors".

I haven't really seen wonderful reports about the quality of caps ASUS has used on previous boards and wondering if folks could help identify the manufacture and if they really are "High-quality"?

Here's the main layout of the board:


The caps fall into 4 types:

Thank you for the identification willawake.
Very much appreciated.

In terms of quality I'm guessing the Fujitsu (which comprise the majority of caps on the board) and Chemicon fall into the "It's Japanese, it's good" theory?

Haven't found too many bad comments about these manufactures on the forums here and those comments that were bad were based on more specific models.

I just noticed that the two Chemicon caps aren't shown in the board layout photo.
They replaced two Fujitsu's located at the top of the PCIe slots (right of the left PCIe slot, and left of the right PCIe slot) between the two PCI slots with the Chemicon's. Guessing they needed to beef those up.

The "purple" caps (~14 of them) look like they are in low voltage/amp roll as they are primarily located around support components (integrated peripherals, etc).

My main concern is how clean these operate which of course depends on the overall design. Knowing that these are at least good helps though.
