Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
He send me the link. It seems to be the hexa 85+ 550W version:

He had written before here that the Hexa+ II would (also?) have just one wet cap: [url]http://www.jonnyguru.com/forums/showpost.php?p=143888&postcount=8[/url]
Here he is telling that the hexa 85+ is DC-DC device: [url]http://www.jonnyguru.com/forums/showpost.php?p=144661&postcount=54[/url]
Looks like FSP is getting rid of wet caps in 2017...

Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
I have read few times from Stefan Payne that the FSP Hexa+ II have only one single wet cap. All other caps were dry caps.
I was not able to find out from where he got that information. I was also not able to find a picture of the inside of the FSP Hexa+ 2 PSU.
Did someone have any news about that PSU?Leave a comment:

Re: Asus P5G41T-M LX - what are those white 8-pin chips?
There is no labeling on the PCB. Here an other picture of the mainboard on a version with missing LPT port:

You see still 3 of them around the PS2 connectors.Re: Asus P5G41T-M LX - what are thos...raft.jpg[/url]Leave a comment:

Asus P5G41T-M LX - what are those white 8-pin chips?
Here a picture of the board:
What are those white 8-pin things next to the paralel and the PS2 port? They are not labeled on the chips themselves.... -
Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
Is the warranty time of 10 or 12 years the only thing i can go for? Having to send a PSU for RMA for example 5 times in 10 years is also something that is defenetly not what i am searching for.
You told that the caps were not the only factor about how long the power supply is going to last. Until now i had never a PSU that was not failed because of the caps. What else is a often fail reason?Leave a comment:

Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
And what Computer PSU should i get now to get longest possible usage time and with as less amount of wet capacitors as possible?Leave a comment:

Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
@budm
I really dont understand your answer. I checked your linked PDF files. None of them is naming a ATX PSU with none or low amount of wet capacitors. Please name a ATX PSU (vendor + model) and maybe a picture of the inside of the PSU.
ThanksLeave a comment:

Are there now replacement caps (size kind of same) existing that did not age any more and are not wet any more? Would be nice if a PSU can be fixed by replacing once all wet caps (maybe not the 400V one) and have then a PSU that would last 20 years or longer of daily usage. -
Re: Enermax Liberty PSUs - are Panasonic FM\FR\FK good?
Have someone find out what capacitor makes is the typical one that makes this does-not-power-on problems? I understand that i makes sense to replace all caps after that many years but because the PSU works fine when it turns on once, it would make more sense to me to just replace this one or two caps that make those power-on problems.
Seems like the whole fist enermax liberty series have exactly this one power-on problem after time.Leave a comment:

Re: Solid caps vs electrostatic caps (computer psu)
Hello. I registered for this post here.
Is there now in 2017 any Computer-PSU with no wet capacitors? 300W of power would be enough for me.
Are there any reports on PSUs that have lower amount of wet capacitors then the FSP Hexa 2 PSU? I really dont want to see electronics being produced that wear out so fast with the time. I hope that in the future there would be PSUs that wont loose any quality when they lay around 10 years before being used first time.Leave a comment:
