Will be hard to repair due to how packed that PSU is. I got one due to the good 5v and 12v rails back when my Barton 3200+ was still the fastest thing I could lay my hands on.My Tagan did work reliably, even though I didn't fully trust it (yes I ended up having basically zero problems with mine).
Indeed, it is heavy and a bit cramped.
But, it's got two 80mm fans (front + back) and I did cleaned the dust.
I also checked it's caps, and there are two leaking ones with another one bulged.
Still, only thing I'm not "happy" about is 3,3V rail (which is 3,5V - I checked by multimeter), other rails are fine +11,92V and +5,15V).
Here's leaked cap shot :
