Asistance required on troubleshooting Corsair CX500
Hello,
I just got a Corsair CX500 which got a blown primary capacitor (a Chemicon SMQ 220uF/400V), judging from the capacitor appearance it seems there are something wrong besides the capacitor as the plastic on capacitor body had some traces as if it was overheat.
Would be grateful if anyone can provide information which parts to check.
Thank you.... -
Re: Newbie question on recapping
thanks, marisuhm. I found LXZ and KZH seller on my local area. No idea if it's the real thing or notthough. On the bad side the PSU I recapped can not start up. Will post with photo on new thread to ask advise on it. It's china made non branded type

Re: Newbie question on recapping
Thanks for the replies. I got 4 socket 478 motherboards which are problematic in stability. after careful inspection they may require recap. At first those boards use "non branded" PSUs which also got cap problem. It took me a week to figure out capacitor problem, the caps not bulging so at first I thought it's safe *face palm*
Time to do some cap shopping now

A quick question regarding recapping on motherboards. Is recapping means changing [U]all[/U] electrolytic caps on the board?
