Re: Msi p35 neo lga775



Took me a long time to notice that those were OSTs. Yeap all 8 were goners.
Those werent KZG. I've decided to go all polymers with sanyos. Seems to me sanyo have quite good ESRs caps and have been reputable to be manufacturing quality caps.


Nice option u posted there. I've checked that those are top liner polymer caps and especially from sanyos. Only problem is sourcing for them is a headache since i'm unsure whether will i get any import tax if i were to get them to malaysia....

Re: Msi p35 neo lga775

Thx for the detail advise.
I'm actually working from scratch scrapping every details out there bit by bit.
I had almost no knowledge at all.

The pic that u indicated werent the ones i have. The ones that bloated are the ones infront of the processor. Those silver caps indicated in the pic were blue ones but were the wet types.The same design as the ones with black and goldish caps.

So i guess KZG cap types are actually the term as what has been call as Solid Capacitors in the market these days.

I'll post up...

On my first try to doing some recapping on my mobo which had been unused for quite long due to a few leaked capacitors.

From my understanding, MSI had been using cheap capacitors in the past and it occured on this board.

I'm planning to remove every bit of those capacitors with a polymer ones then the regular wet types.

The indication indicated as 680uf 4v.

Can i replace it with 680UF 6.3V ones?
