I'm recapping some of my old motherboards, with polymer caps. This is called "polymod". Right now, I'm thinking about recap my P6S5AT. Every cap was made by G-Luxon.

The bigger caps is 1500uf/6.3v/10mm (x21 or x22)

There are x4 1000uf/10v/8mm

And x4 470uf/16v/8mm

About the smaller ones, if I really recap, I'll leave the way it is or I'll replace, at least, the 100uf/16v (x13 or x14).

In the past, do you saw problems with this capacitors mobo ?

You talked about a software called CMOSTool to overclock the FSB but I really can't find it anywhere, could you help me please ?

If you are still interested please write me a PM.

Hi, I'm also interested but I can't compose PM's for now, can you write me one ?
Thank you.

The worst thing happened to me, I have a Jetway J-635CS, 2x 1gb DDR 400 Kingston, Radeon HD 3650, Pentium III 1.1 GHz SL5QW Coppermine aka fastest coppermine, and pretty much the best 370 setup.
I switched PSU's and suddenly no post, switched back to the old one still no post, the CPU fan spins for a second then nothing, the cpu gets warm, but the chipset is cold, I checked everything seems the mosfet shorted so i can't get correct reading on the caps, and the GPU's caps blew. I pray that I'll manage to fix the motherboard, even if I have to re-solder the whole thing from ground up, hope the chipset is fine because that would be a real pain in the ass to source and solder even then it might not be compatible.

Just had to write this down here as a 635 user in pain 😒 If anyone has any advice I'll be super thankful!
Also I've got a dead Intel D815 board, it worked 10 years ago and the whole PC was just stashed away, the caps were dead so I recaped it and it still wont post,
why are they selling those 2 ancient boards for huge amounts of money? I can't find anything under a couple hundred dollars.

Rev 1.6 - 02.07.11

In case you have this board and you want to participate in this project please provide your rev and date of production 😉 The higher rev with production date the bigger OC potential 😀

1) Rev 1.3 - 01.04.24 - NO OC potential (Tualatins work only at 66 FSB)

2) Rev 1.5 - 01.05.22
3) Rev 1.5 - 01.05.23 - Tualatin Support, Coppermines work good at 166 MHz, Tualatins only at 150 MHz.
4) Rev 1.5 - 01.06.28

5) Rev 1.6 - 01.08.29 - Tualatin Support, Coppermines work good at 166 MHz, Tualatins have some problems at 166 MHz.
6) Rev 1.6 - 01.09.04

7) Rev 1.6 - 02.02.14
😎 Rev 1.6 - 02.02.19 - Tualatin Support, Coppermines work good at 166 MHz, Tualatins can work better at 166 MHz.
9) Rev 1.6 - 02.07.11

All revs support 2 GB of Ram (not only 1,5 GB as suggested by the chipset producer)

When it comes to HDD the maximum transfer rate is around 82,4 MB/sec (ATA UDMA100 onboard controller)
Here's how it scales with FSB:

66FSB - 78,8 MB/sec

100FSB - 81,1 MB/sec

150FSB - 82,6 MB/sec

166FSB - 82,4 MB/sec

Here's how long it takes to boot into windows on 166 FSB:

Those caps were of low quality just like the vast majority from that period of time 😉

I feel for you 🙁 I just hope you will be able to get this mobo back to life! In case you need help just PM me 😀

I would also like you to make so HQ photos of your mobo and make them public - THERE ARE NO GOOD PHOTOS IN THE WHOLE INTERNET 😉 You are the lucky owner of Jetway J-635CS 😁 Please share 😉
