Re: Recapping motherboards - no non-low-ESR caps existing (anymore?)

On these old mainboards, without step-down regulators, you can use "general purpose" electrolytics, or low-esr types. It doesn´t matter, because they are just local buffers compensating transients etc. What was the test frequency when you measured 0.5 ohm ESR? I doubt they have low ESR like that. …
