ANyone know where I can pick up a dozen of these caps or by replacing them, should i use a higher number?

hmm

depends..

try www.digikey.com

i had a tech tere send me part numbers for the 1K mfd@6.3v and the 1500MFD@10v caps

they seemed to be ata decent price

if you find a good place online let me know

i got a blown 1500mfd in my current bp6 and need to replace 23 caps total in my other

we had two Asus Duel CPU boards go bad..
when i looked it up i found that it was a known problem and did find some info on changing them. worth the time tho? maybe back when the board was worth some money..
now you can buy a p4 MB with hyperthreading and SATA support for $100

caps will cost you maybe $15-20 at most

time.. about 2 hours if you take your time
