Thanks :)

I still don't have 1 of every Revision.... There may even be more than REV 14... I was buying faulty MoBos to find more revisions i don't have..BUT it gets really expensive real quick....So had to stop....
I have more videos you may like on my youtube channel...

Someone on another YouTube video posted that the MS8 & MS9 chassis's are auto-discharging. Not that I would rely on that but just curious if you knew anything regarding that? Thanks for the vids Tim! Always a great watch sir.

All chassis will self discharge... Its the amount of time that they take that varies.....
Better to be safe than sorry....

Yes , Nichicon is an OK brand... still heaps better than whats on the MoBo to start with!!!

@AlxUnderBase - I've seen Panasonic, Nichicon and Rubycon capacitors being highly recommended in arcade repair logs / tutorials. I don't think you can really go wrong with either of those brands.

Yeah brother , but in my head are only Nichicon brand (it's easy when you have on hand a esr meter to know exactly the value of capacitors you wanna change) ... if you're in my place you will go on the Panasonic or Rubycon route?
