Hey everyone,
After a one-year hiatus from retro hardware, I am once again considering returning to the scene.
I am willing to take some safety measures first, however. It had previously been brought to my attention that the 3.3v rail was stressing the power supply of the system, pulling 0.35v more than it's allowed. The motherboard in question is an ASUS P2B Rev 1.04 motherboard, which, I'm going to assume, needs to be re-capped.
Even if that isn't the main issue, I'd be more than willing to replace the old capacitors with a new polymer-based brand. I am not exactly sure what capacitance they would need to be to match the electrolytic capacitors, but I did find polymer capacitors with matching ratings.
Any help would be appreciated!
