    Re: Suing Antec

    Dang...someone should have figured out that asking if they should be sued NOW would be irrelevant...but there's not much I can do.

        Antec Earthwatts EA-380 smd element type/value
        by sirpsychol
        While recaping Antec Earthwatts EA-380 I've broke one side of unknown smd element, it have no print, it's flatter and darker than smd capacitors on this board, shaped more like resistor but it's not resistor ofc. Unfortunetly the printed description was under it and element was glued to the board so I cant read/tell the letter before element number too. Have anyone any idea what it is? Maybe is there any diagram of this PSU?

        Picking caps for Antec SU-380
        by ajdrenter
        In my search for a proper 5v heavy ATX power supply, I selected an old Antec SU-380 that I've had in storage for a long time. Opening the power supply reveals a couple bulged capacitors. I removed all the caps and made a map for myself. I found the datasheet for the PCE TUR series in this thread:
        https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=14159
        It says these are general purpose, so I assume I can replace them with any general purpose capacitors, but I don't really know anything about power supply circuits or reading capacitor datasheets. Despite this, I've been shopping for replacements:...

        Antec Smart Power SL300S capacitor replacement.
        by CWEastwood
        Hello,

        I'm currentlly in the process of trying my first power supply repair (really my first soldering project) and have some questions with regard to which capacitors to replace the bad ones.

        The power supply is an Antec Smart Power SL300S ATX12V 300 watt.

        I have successfully desoldered every capacitor from the board without destroying anything (I think) and I am currently in the process of choosing which caps to order. This is where I'd like a little community wisdom.

        Now the capacitors inside are mostly Fuhjyyus (a forum favorite) with 1...

        Antec VP-600P and NE550M dead
        by s_henya
        Hi all,

        Got in these 2 nice PSUs, both died after power surge.
        Both seems to be suffering from the same fault.
        Blown main fuse
        Shorted N mosfet 550v
        VP-600P: 5R280CE short between GDS
        NE550M: MDF18N50 short between GDS

        In terns of board layout these seems pretty identical.

        From past knowledge, once gate get shorted, most likely the for the driver to go bad as well.
        I never tried to salvage blown fuse PSU with shorted Mosfet due to that.

        Is it worth to try and replace the mosfets? is there a chance that the...

        Antec BP500U APFC Coil
        by GnatGoSplat
        Antec BP500U PSU fried in my wife's gaming PC. I smelled something unpleasant last night, so I had a hunch something might be amiss. Woke up this morning to a popped breaker and immediately assumed the APFC cap must have blown. I last fixed it sometime in 2011, there's a thread about it here someplace. APFC and secondary caps that time. Replaced them with Panasonic caps. 10+yrs is probably a good run. It's been running 24/7 the last 3yrs, eth mining with a 1070ti and AFK fishing in Black Desert Online, lol.

        Anyway, cracked it open this morning, expecting it to just be the APFC cap...
