Hi Guys!
For my retro machine I was looking for a mainboard with 3.3V AGP support. Luckily I found several being one a K7T266 Pro2 from MSI. The board runs fine, but after a brief visual inspection I could find physically damaged caps around the socket area. My guess is that during the installation of the CPU cooler they got damaged. To be on the save side I want to replace them.
My main concern are the five RUBYCON MBZ 2200uf, 6.3V. But if I start the process I am also looking on the other ones around the socket area.
In total there are
8x RUBYCON MBZ 2200uf, 6.3V (10D/20L)
3x RUBYCON MBZ 1500uf, 16.0V (10D/20L)
I figured out that MSI also put Chemi-Con KZG on other KT266 boards, but same like the MBZ there is in my understanding no direct replacement available nowadays. Many posts in forums are quite old.
Does anyone have a recommendation what I can use? Maybe PANASONIC FR? I know that ESR/Ripple doesn't match, but I am relatively new to the topic so any hint would be of help.
Thanks a lot, regards from Germany!
