Re: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW (replacing caps with newer versions?)

Thanks for that, that makes sense. Since I'm not a big guru in this field i guess i will stick to the normal suggested. At least get the monitor working again, cause I miss it ;-)

Re: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW (replacing caps with newer versions?)

Thanks for the info. That is very helpful. I have another question stemmed from that. What are poly caps, and how would I find them vs the ones from the list above. Forgive my ignorance, but the best I could make of the list above was to type in the product codes to google and saw what came up there.

Re: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW (replacing caps with newer versions?)

Anyone able to help? or give advice?

Hello. Very new to the forum, very new to caps and soldering period.

I have a Samsung SyncMaster 226BW that started blinking and I narrowed it down to the bad caps like in this [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7900"]POST[/URL]. I will have to take it apart again jus to double check exactly which caps are bad, but aside from that I have a question about replacing these caps in general.

My question is can I replace these caps:

with either solid state caps or "Newer Technology" caps that will make it stronger/more...
