Does anyone out there have any experience with Antec's "Basiq" range? Same old poorly cooled Fuhjyyu crap?

Re: Antec Basiq?
Hi,
no first hand experience, but definately looks like a Fortron. I think the Fortron model is GLC or HLC if I remember correctly. -
Re: Antec Basiq?
As indicated here http://www.jonnyguru.com/SMPS_UL.htm the Basiq is indeed OEMed by FSP.
Here in The States, the Enhance 360W ATX units can be bought for < $35, they are very good units filled with Teapo caps.
They distribute from The Netherlands.Comment

Re: Antec Basiq?
A friend of mine recently said he fixed 4 of the original version 500W Basiqs made by FSP, all because the same 2200uF, 6.3V CapXon bloated, and one of those PSUs was a spare kept in storage. So I checked mine, which I rarely use, and it also had a bloated 2200uF CapXon (C35), although ESR measured just 0.13 ohm (spec is .090 ohm impedance).Comment

Re: Antec Basiq?
I've come in contact with the BP350, 500, and semi modular 550. The BP350 actually used mostly Teapo. Their heat sinks are horrible but I think they are pretty good after a recapComment

Yes, I know I don't post this stuff much anymore....the only reason I'm posting this one is because of a NVMe adapter incompatibility; seems rather planned by Supermicro.....or I'm atleast a bit suspicious. It's plenty new enough to have a UEFI bios but a short 'happy list' of NVMe controllers that will work with this board, as if by some 'miracle', all Intel....so lets start at the beginning; we'll get back to this later.
Of course the motherboard is as the thread title states; X10dai....but we'lre going to have some fun shoehorning this into a modern 'gamer case' that can actually... -
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?

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:... -
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... -
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...
