If anyone wants to find a good capacitor. I recommend this website. I bought the Nichicon brand produces lots of hi temp cap.
select Aluminum capacitor and start to drill down by its capacitance, voltage then select the life time @ temp. Example for the life time @ temp, let's say 1000 hr @105 degree Celsius means it can operate for that long but it will last longer than 1000 hr if lower temp. http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?lang=en&site=us&keywords= I changed two caps on my G4 daughterboard already but not because of its breaking down however. : D On Oct 17, 8:01 pm, cheryl <[email protected]> wrote: > You guys will think I'm nuts but here goes.
