Is this how I should replace NEC Tokin caps for a slim ?

[L3gi0n0fh311]

So I own a slim 20xx which has 2x NEC Tokins on the top + 2x on the bottom of the board.

I want to replace ALL 4 Nec Tokin caps.

(0) Should I just replace the NEC Tokins on the top ? Or should I replace the bottom ones too ? Does it hurt if I change them all ?

(1) How many of these Tantalum caps do I need ? 16 ? They should be 330uF ?

(2) Are the Tantalum caps mentioned in (1) durable ? what's the best cap to use here ?

(3) The top and the bottom of the board where the NEC Tokins are should look like this :?



(4) In the above picture 470uF caps are used...I should use 330uF caps ?

Many Thanks

you can just replace one side of the motherboard. I used these caps and they work fine for all my phat and slim ps3s.

Never use fake capacitors, always spend the extra. You can buy them from sites like Mouser and Digikey. I recommend buying all 32 caps, since you have to pay more for postage but you’ll receive it more quickly.
