Hi i have a soon to be volt modded (vdimm,vcore,vagp by our very own hell-fire) ASUS p4C800 E DLX, and I know that as soon as i get it volt modded my warranty goes down the drain so i was wondering if i should get all the caps replaced to high quality japanese ones to ensure the life of my mobo... It costs 50 bucks and the guy does the job flawlessly... Is it worth it? And will i get cleaner more reliable power sent to my components?
If you can indeed get higher quality caps that are the SAME voltage and capacitance rating, may as well do it.
But if you are going extreme as possible.
Not sure the $50 is well spent unless you are using a phase change rig and trying for every sinlge little mhz you can grab.
Although the caps will help to filter out any AC signal that is missed by the psu, unless the voltage leakage is pretty severe on the stock caps, changing them out could cost money you can spend elsewhere.
Better put, if I had money to do it, had a great clocking cpu and ram, a quality psu, and fantastic cooling......I would do it just because I can...know what I mean.
