    Identify a Mobo Alu Cap (help!)

    in Volt modifications

    Posted

    Very good!

     

    ok...this repair is new for me so bear with me as I want to understand exactly what I am doing to be able to figure it out myself if needed. Sooooo, just took out the board and the multi, and the 'breaker' (that's what they are right?) closest to the reset button only has voltage on one side. I will meassure all of them, but as this is the problem area I found the failing element quickly. Left side shows 5. something volts, the right hand side nothing.

     

    What is the best way to move forward. Can I bypass the breaker safely just to test, or should I start with replacing a certain cap or the three caps alltogether? Something caused the breaker to fail, if the cap is the suspect root cause I have to replace the caps anyways...educate me plzzz :D

    Most excellent!

     

    I tried to attach the pic...

     

    Great!, so I have a bunch of fuses I need to meassure for voltage....if one has blown it will show. But if a cap is busted and is internally shorted, I should still have voltage on all fuses I guess?

    Most excellent, thanks guys. I did however make a mistake...it's a Crosshair IV Formula ;) . I have both, made a typo! If you could post a pic with meassuring points for the IV that would be awesome :D

     

    Values gotcha! . The caps were stretched quite a bit to the side putting significant force on the Cap legs and I pushed the caps back, so I would expect the problem to be one of the caps causing a short. Could I just desolder the 2 'suspicious' caps and try without them to see if the error is gone? Need to replace them anyways...but if it doesn't hurt I could already verify it.

     

    Also, I can use normal caps as well I guess...if I can get the Alu locally I will, but they might just have the regulars.

    Hey all,

     

    Got an Asus Crosshair III Formula of which a few (alu closed) caps had been sidebashed and they need replacement. I suspect them to put the board into a 'usb over current protection' state of automatically shutting down within 15 secs (yes I checked USB etc.). Three of them, all the same value. I just can't figure out what I can get as replacement. The cap says the following:

     

    FP

    OZBx (the O could be a 'zero')

    101

    16

     

    Can someone give me some kind of advice...want to get this board going.

     

    Thanks, Michel

    Unfortunately, I dont know what mean. Could you provide a link?

     

    Come to think of it...and I don't have a clue if this is true...should your score have a global ranking to be present. It might be I didn't achieve that with my X5677 (which I believe has the highest score of my Quads):

    You can see a Quad score is not in Bold...

     

    Confused...but you'll shed the light shortly ;)

    Hi Guys,

     

    Oh no...it's that ax7 dude...!

     

    Sorry to bother you again, but I had noticed this before but thought it was caused by some recent submissions or something. But it's as the title says, I don't have a Top R15 ranking for 4x CPU...the others work fine (1x 2x 6x 8x). If it is my mistake, let me know and start thinking about suitable punishments!

     

    Thanks, Michel (12AX7)

    Ik denk dat ik lichtelijk aan het dementeren ben...ik zie het gewoon echt niet? (of hebben jullie het al gefixed)

     

    Had Wprime en Superpi verwisseld...en (dacht) gecorrigeerd. Zag wel dat de frequency nog niet ok is...nu wel

     

    Wil natuurlijk geen extra werk creeren voor de moderators, ik check nu al dubbel voor de zekerheid na de vorige keer maar ja, kben wel blond :S Mijn nederige excuses!

    Cannot submit at all since yesterday

    Hello HWBot team,

     

    Sorry to bother you with this, but since yesterday I am not able to submit. I tried different browsers, and on 2 machines but I get the page with the drunk bot ;) . Recalculated ranks to check my account, which worked fine.

     

    Thanks, Michel
