In July 2002 I purchased an Abit SA6R MB. It of course had the faulty caps which revealed themselves June 2004 with constant rebooting. As far as I could tell 6 caps were leaking and 8 bulging. The board had a one year warrantee which expired July 2003. I contacted ABIT, they issued an RMA, sent the board and within one week I received back a replacement board (with the new style caps). Thanks to ABIT for wonderful customer service. I will certainly recommend ABIT boards to friends and will look at them first when considering new MBs in the future. Howard Nelson
