    450W PSU capacitor Identification and where to get another one?

    Howdy peeps.

    Can someone tell me where to get another one of these? google doesn't seem to have a 560uF and I am still quite a newbie to the whole world of electronics so trying to learn as I go. The one to the right of this pic is definitely swollen. PSU does random shut downs / no power on etc

    Also, can it be replaced with a higher uF cap ? Same voltage?

    Thanks

    Not only is the values of uF and V important, also the size LxWxH, leg spacing, temperature rating, etc. You probably cannot deviate much of anything, as size wise the cap has to fit in a certain spot.
    So take the cap out match it up with a decent brand something from Digikey, Mouser, LCSC, TME, Farnell or whatever. Don't go buying caps from Fleabay, Ali… they are probably fake.

      you need to replace them both as a matching pair.

        Thanks guys. Will pull it out tomorrow. My issue is that I stay in a 3rd world country so getting caps is like finding a needle in a haystack.
