A7N8X-E Deluxe recapping?

[admin.397]

Hi there,

I'm trying to figure out what I should replace these capacitors with:

ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe Rev. 1.01


Clearly I want 3300uF, 6.3V, and something like Samxon or Rubycon.

Does anyone know where I can get these cheaply in Australia, or some facsimile that will work OK on my motherboard? I need to grab 8 of them (the 5 not pictured are pretty bad... one has an ant mound of electrolyte and they are all boiling to touch when powered up!)

Thanks!

I recapped one of these just recently but a v2.0 mobo.

I believe these to be 10mm, getting a replacement for me
was impractical, so the easiest option was to use 12.5mm
Panasonic FM.

Of course, to get these to fit, you will have to be creative
and consider any SMT parts adjacent to the silk screen for the
10mm devices in place.

I simply raised them 5mm for clearance where this was the case.

As I don't have pics (and still don't own a digital camera),
best to use your own judgement.

Maybe you can get this guy to ship them to you:
