Perhaps it is a silly question. But I really want to know if there is a specific brand, or even model, which only uses Japanese brand (or any other good brands) capacitors?
Thanks in advance!

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
First of all thanks for the reply. But this model Delta DPS-400MB-1A is not available from my local stores. I did a google search and found out Delta DPS-400MB-1A is an OEM PSU from delta for IBM. I can only find DPS-400TB/GB/AB in my place.
I am tired of those low quality chinese capacitors. Nearly every malfunction PSU I saw had bulged caps -- such as those Jackcon/ S / Capxon -- after replace them some worked again, but some didn't.
Even in Delta PSU there are bunches of Capxon. SPI/FSP uses Teapo, but from my experience Capxon is worse than Teapo.
Any recommendations are welcome.Comment

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
Corsair "VX" series use all Japanese caps. They will cost you though.
FSP "GLN" series is all Teapo. "THN" series is OST. And the Teapo FSPs are utter trash that will not last you for more than a year. I'll let you know how the THNs hold out I just replaced a GLN with a THN and I am waiting to see hwo long it lasts.SPI/FSP uses Teapo, but from my experience Capxon is worse than Teapo.Last edited by mockingbird; 02-09-2010, 01:46 PM."We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years.

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
Just about every single corsair product uses UCC caps. Antecs still have the few rubycons, UCC's, and Nichicons in their delta units. Antec's seasonics have all UCC, Enhance models have UCC and teapo.
Even so, if you see teapo, you needn't pull out your hair, as teapo, ltec, and taicon seem to do pretty well in psu's as evidenced by delta and a multitude of other psu manufacturers.

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
I have a Seasonic made Antec Earthwatts 380W. All it has is OST. I've replaced a few of them with pannies.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
Hmm, must just be some (or knowing antec, most,) don't. My TPN550 has all UCC's in it though. I've never seen a delta with teapo in it though, I would like to see those.Originally posted by mockingbirdComment

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
Thanks all for your helpful opinions.
I did a search about Corsair VX series and it seems to have good reputation. Perhaps Corsair VX 450W is my only choice.
I know that some of Delta and Antec's products do have good caps. But many crappy Capxon/OST are being used in some of their products. I don't know which specific models of their products have Japanese caps only.Comment

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
That's the first PSU that came to my mind when I read your thread. I didn't know how many watts you needed so I said "VX". The higher wattage Corsairs also have Japanese caps, not necessarily even VX, but the lower models, only the VX has Japanese caps.Originally posted by corliq
It shouldn't cost you more than $110. Corsair is now releasing a new revision of the 450VX, so maybe it's worth waiting till these hit the shelves.
Also, there's a Corsair rep at the Jonnyguru forums. I think his name is redbeard."We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine!

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
Two of them, redbeard and yellowbeard. Redbeard does more of the PSU stuff and is around more, yellowbeard is hardly around and does more of the memory-half (at least from what I've seen)Originally posted by mockingbirdComment

One Antec with Fuckyous was enough, and for that price, they should be ashamed of themselves. I don't trust nothing but Corsair VX or HX series anymore.Comment

Re: PSU with good caps only? any suggestion?
I have a CoolerMaster eXtreme Power 550W PSU in my main rig. It has all Samxon, except for a single Su'Scon. I can't remember what the primaries are. Either Samxon or Capxon.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

This one should make @Pentium4 smile

Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea.

I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...
