    Help choosing capacitors for Asus VW266H

    So i ordered a kit off of amazon, this one, thinking i ordered the right model. It had all the right caps i needed for the power board and most of the video board, i have only 5 caps left on the video board that i need to change, but the ones i have left doesn't have the right voltage/uf.

    I would need help choosing the right ones on digikey.ca

    The caps i'm missing are
    25v 47uf
    25v 47uf
    25v 47uf
    16v 220uf
    16v 220uf

    The one i have left from the kit are
    16v 47uf
    16v 47uf
    16v 47uf
    10v 220uf
    10v 220uf

    Thank you.

      In the kit it said they were all panasonic and nichicon, they were FR and FM.

      Here's a pic, the 5 ones on the bottom right below the panasonic caps are not changed.

        Check the voltage on the caps with a multi meter.
        It is possible the down-rating was done because the circuit does not expose the caps to voltages higher than the ones you received.

          they still shouldnt be doing that, specially as they are selling you 50c caps at a 100% markup

            I don't have a multi meter on hand right now, i don't want to take the chance to change them and something worst happen. I would just like to replace them with the same voltage/uf as the original ones, but with higher quality.

              From Amazon reviews for the kit:

              This kit worked as expected. My monitor had multiple vertical lines with one dominate line almost center of the screen. After replacing all of the capacitors, the monitor is back to normal. I first replaced the caps on the power supply and found it did not fix the issue. Replacing all the caps on the processor board fixed it. This was used on a VW266H monitor. A couple of the capacitors replaced were originally 25volt and the kit had 16volt. I don't expect any problems as manufactures will often place a higher voltage cap even if not needed.

                Ok i feel stupid as hell for passing that up, guess i'll replace them now. I didn't know the manufacturer would use higher voltage caps than what the board would need, and could be swapped for lower ones. Thanks y'all for your help.

                  Well there is no guarantee of course, you could always ask the seller too.
                  It seems others have in the past and have received feedback.
