Re: Premium MLCC Capacitor Selection

Thanks for the help

C0G looks ideal but there is nothing even close to the size I need. I was looking at X5R or X7R, which should be the same for my use because I am not pushing high temp, in fact, it's the opposite.

Any advice on brands? I see a lot of Taiyo Yuden, and Murata Electronics, which I am not familiar with, are they good? I also see AVX and KEMET which I know and have used in the past. I am tempted by Samsung caps, they look good and the price is very reasonable. ...any input here?

Hello everyone, new here!

I am looking for some advice on capacitor section. The capacitor will be used for modern high-frequency CPU core. I am looking for a premium capacitor to drop in as a replacement for the existing MLCC's on a z390 motherboard.

The idea is to replace the existing caps, and/or piggyback the existing caps to evaluate the effects on maximum achievable overclocking frequency.
