These capacitors may exhibit issues such as bulging, leaking, or even exploding, potentially damaging other components on the motherboard. Users should inspect their capacitors regularly and replace any that are faulty or leaking to avoid damage or system instability.

Notes:

This board can be modified to use 12V for the VRM.

VRM Capacitor Values: 8x 6.3V 3300uF if these are rubycon MCZ/MBZ they should be good
