#142596 - Where to find a certain type of capacitor ?
Hello everyone,

two weeks ago, while installing a new graphics card in my PC, I noticed that several of the electrolytic capacitors on the mainboard are failing (leaking electrolyte at the top, or bulging at the top).

I have been looking for a suitable replacement, but without much luck. I am looking for eight of the following:

Radial
3300 uF, 6.3V
10 mm x 25 mm
5 mm grid
Low ESR (the originals were Nichicon HM(M) with 12 mOhms ESR)
105° Celsius max temperature

I checked www.farnell.de, de.digikey.com and www.rsonline.de. The capacitors there are either too large (12.5 mm x 20 mm won't fit), or aren't a low ESR type.

Any advice on where I could look ?
