    help picking out the right capacitor for my xbox

    i want rubycon brand capacitors. i want high ripple current, low esr(preferably, ultra low) 3300uf 10v caps. i'm having a hard time figuring out which series i should go with. most info i find is about discontinued caps. please help me pick the right ones? would there be any benefit to going with audio grade caps like less interference? thank u.

    audio grade are crap, they just have a flatter frequency response under 20KHz.
    and rubycon dont make ultra-low esr electrolytics anymore.
    the closest you will get is ones starting with "ZL"

        if the caps are good enough - they will work, if not then you will get random crashes

          Check out my other thread you posted in yesterday. I listed two links for best cheap capacitors for 1.0-1.4 and 1.6 models. You can't get ultra low esr in electrolytic's anymore but you can get very low esr which is just fine for an xbox.
          Here are Rubycon's that will work https://www.digikey.com/en/products/...2-5X20/4977113
          If you have a 1.6 board, you have to get ZLQ which are 10mm diameter since they are much closer to each other vs early models (see pic)
