I shared this picture on another forum to those who think polymer caps won't die.

And someone over there wants to know: What brands are the two bad ploys? What brand is the board? Thanks.

Afaik, APAQ are the crappy polymer caps. At least one of them!

They are Apaq and the board was an ASUS

lol... Someone thought the caps with red paintings on their tops are from Fujitsu and these with purple paintings are Sanyo SEPC. :lol2:

Colors could deceive sometimes.

Apaq are often black now, but used to be red.
