          200W-250W seems about right for those heatsinks. Boschert Inc., now part of Artesyn, used Elna for O/P caps in the late 70s. The Elna moved their factory to Korea (IIRC), lost their "formula", refused to acknowledge it, and Boschert was forced to do a lot of warranty repairs and "eat" a lot of caps they had in stock. I was informed of that in 1980 by Boschert's component engineer when I worked there. Hopefully Elna has learned much in the past 25 years.

              It's not crap, merely over-rated. It should be good for 200-250W - the secondary-side caps seem to be Elna/Chemicon, so it should be OK. Just pre-emptively replace the auxiliary primary-side flyback capacitor (visible to the right of the top-most transformer on the 2nd pic) with a long-life Nichicon PW(M) or Chemicon LXA and you should be OK for many years of safe use.
              i have seen noname caps with the same vent elna uses.
              a pic of the caps would be nice.

                Good call - those Koshin and Fujhiyu (?) on the secondary need to be recapped. Primary is not that critical, except for the auxiliary flyback.

                      You've found one Fuhjyyu cap in that ISO power supply, my Antec PSU is loaded with them!

                      I'd say that ISO PSU would be good enough for a Celeron 2.6GHz Prescott machine.

                        i have Fuhjyyu in several units. the most important thing is whether the psu design is ok so it wont nuke the computer when they fail.

                        In this case it was quite suprising to find one Fuhjyyu amongst all those Koshin when i was checking the photos.

                          On a side note, I'm glad I went through this thread. Now your avatar makes sense......kinda.

                          It had me wondering.

                            At work one time an Antec TrueControl 550 (pretty expensive at the time) blew up and also nuked the PC. Somehow the protection didn't work. An autopsy was done on it and all the capacitors and all the transformers in that thing went bad.
                            The horrible odor was not good and the thing was way beyond repair level so it was trashed with the system it nuked. Too bad I have no pics.

                                    An autopsy was done on it and all the capacitors and all the transformers in that thing went bad.
                                    If the O/P transformer had a primary-secondary breakdown, the current limit and OVP circuits aren't going to help. I'll bet the ashes didn't smell too good.

                                      sounds like what happened while i demonstrated the lack of overcurrent protection in a powmax built black knight unit.
                                      when it failed internally it blew flames and sparks out the vents for a good 5 minutes before it blew a fuse.it continues to burn for quite a while afterwards and the fire traveled down the harness dripping flaming plastic.
                                      the best reason to avoid cheap psu.

                                        You're right, the ashes didn't smell good. The capacitors had a scent of ammonia and rotten fish mixed together!

                                        when it failed internally it blew flames and sparks out the vents for a good 5 minutes before it blew a fuse.it continues to burn for quite a while afterwards and the fire traveled down the harness dripping flaming plastic.
                                        the best reason to avoid cheap psu.
                                        That Antec had sparks going everywhere on the inside of it and it caught fire, but it was very small and was extinguished. The only thing that survived in that thing were the two fans (it was a dual fan PSU) and I have them in my closet. One 80MM and one 92MM.

                                        I now got an Antec SmartPower SL450 450W P4 and SATA ready PSU, hope it doesn't have a painful and smelly death like the Antec TrueControl 550 at the place I work at.

                                            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).

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

                                            Magnum IA.100 Amplifier Switches on, No Output, Possible Input Side fault?
                                            by flibidy
                                            I have here a Magnum IA.100 which belongs to my parents.



                                            The unit powers on & when the relay kicks in, you get a pop from the speakers (this might sound weird but is usual behavior for this amp). However, you get nothing coming through it from any of the inputs & no pops and crackls from any of the controls.


                                            Because of the sound from the speaker when the amp turns on I have assumed that the output section probably works but I could be wrong & I'm not sure how to test that side of things further.

                                            Need to find a 34-Pin Motherboard Floppy Header
                                            by Topcat
                                            Looking for some floppy headers.....searching the usual sources (digikey/mouser/etc) until my eyes bled, I couldn't seem to find such a beast. Yes, the silly 34 pin floppy header for a PC motherboard....

                                            Why? Well, I was given a bunch of Optiplex 330's, which are useless systems these days....and despite what some have said, they do not respond well to the E5450 c0 stepping LGA771 Xeon mod, tried several, it never worked. They're in a standard BTX case, so I tossed some $5 Optiplex 380 boards in them I picked up on ebay, which will run ANY 5400-series Xeon with hard mods + firmware........

                                            Retro laptop floppy drive not working
                                            by Satdude
                                            Hi, I have a laptop with a Citizen W1D, an infamous drive in the retro computing hobby. They almost always have bad belts, such was the case with this one. However, after replacing the belt, the drive seeks and spins the disk, but the laptop still gives a "No bootable disk" error. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? The heads are clean and are able to move.

                                            Copy DMI info easily with Hex editing software and Macro script
                                            by SMDFlea
                                            Copying DMI information from an old bios to a new one is difficult for some members, often they have no experience with a hex editor,or some that have tried find it too hard.There is an option to make things easier for those members so that they don`t need to post their own bios backup for the DMI copying.

                                            Experienced bios modding members can help by posting in other threads the DMI offsets,macro script generated by the software and a download link to the software at softpedia mentioned in this guide,or post your macros in the comments here with a link to the bios request thread ....
