    ASUS P5GC-MX motherboard recap
    by momaka
    Here’s another motherboard that needed a full recap: an ASUS P5GC-MX.
    This one was gifted to me some years ago by user Pentium 4, along with a few other goodies. It actually came in working order with no bulging or leaking caps. However, I noted there were United Chemicon KZG caps everywhere on the motherboard. The CPU VRM output (CPU V_core) was the only exception: it had only 2x KZG. The rest was 6x UCC TMV 4V 680 uF caps… which aren’t any good news either.

    So here is what the motherboard looked like with its original caps:

    no-name Radeon 9600 XT recap and cooler
    by momaka
    I've been seeing a lot of cheap-looking (but not always so cheap) no-name AGP video cards on eBay for a while. They started popping up quite a bit when the market for AGP cards became more alive all of a sudden due to interest in “retro” PCs. One thing that struck me about these cheapo cards is that they almost always seem to come with garbage caps - including the abominable Sacon FZ. That aside, though, I've been wondering about the rest of the quality (or lack of?) on these cards. So I decided to satisfy my curiosity yet again.

    This one was actually suggested to me by ChaosLegionnaire....

    Looking for someone to recap Dell XPS T450 motherboard (Live in suburbs outside of Philly)
    by varunviolin007
    Hi guys,

    I’m looking for someone in the Northeast to do a full electrolytic capacitor recap on a working Dell Dimension XPS T450 motherboard (it's an Intel 440BX, Slot 1). The board runs mostly fine but is beginning to freeze after warm reboots (turns back on for 30 secs or so and then freezes up but is perfectly fine after 12 hr cool down).

    I’d be sending just the bare motherboard (CPU, cards, bracket, battery all removed). I’m located in Chadds Ford, PA and happy to ship within the US.

    Looking for someone experienced with older PC boards who uses...

    Recap motherboards :: Abit KG7-LITE and Soltek SL-75FRN2-L
    by Foetuss
    Hi all

    Hope this is in the correct place.

    I'm planning on recapping both motherboards. I actually already ordered recplament caps for them, where I will be changing out most for poly's.
    Could use some double checking to see if I'm not doing something stupid .

    Pictures of the boards are attached.
    What I will be replacing with what : (planned)

    Soltek Golden ::
    4 1500µF 16V 10mm (5mmL) KZG => APSG160ELL152MJ16S (Chemi-Con 1500µF 16V)
    6 3300µF 6.3V 10mm (5mmL) KZG => APSG160ELL272MJ20S (Chemi-Con 2700µF 16V)...

    Got 4 LG L222WS 22" for free - psu recap
    by goodpsusearch
    Got 4 CCFL 16/10 monitors for free.

    The resolution is almost Full HD (1680x1050)

    VGA Input only is a bummer though.

    Uses cheap TN panel with terrible viewing angles.

    Even though this is not 17" 5:4 screen, still has very low resell value here. Can be found for 15-20 euros.

    All the 4 monitors were not working and needed psu recap. Used mix of mediocre / junk caps to recap them, then donated 3 of them to friends/relatives and kept 1 for myself. Also like to install extra caps on empty spaces to help them last longer.
