Good point!While I totally believe in preventative maintenance, I also believe in the "if it isn't broke, don't fix it" way as well.
Back in the days of these boards, both Gigabyte and Asus used some of the best quality parts in their boards. Are the newer caps better quality? Probably so, however, why take a chance of frying a motherboard for "preventative maintenance?"
