    Tv is fixed. Its a 26" and decided to keep as new pc monitor. I normally run two monitors at once, although I may hook a 2nd video card in and run a third.

    Here is links to caps that fit this particular tv.
    10V 2200uF Motherboard Capacitors Quantity 10 | eBay

    Just match uf rating. You can always go a little higher on uf. It actually might make the tv last longer and be more stable. Voltage also has to matches, but you can go wee higher.

    Pic of tv. Im now using as a computer monitor. Even have the tv speakers tied into the pc for music. Any of the new HDTV's have a VGA hookup. The blue plug cable. Or if you have a decent video card, you can go with a hdmi cable. The 10 dollar hdmi cable from the dollar store works surprisingly well.





    Note. Im cheap. I dug one of the last scraggling motherboards that didnt make it out the door this week. I retrieved the caps off of it and installed. They were a lower uf rating, but tv works fine. By my guess, they were probaly last 6 months before popping again. But for now, works good.
