PRESSRELEASE
For immediate release
Official Press Statement
EPoX is Commenting on technical issue: Conflict between the CE6 
capacitor on EP-8KHA/+ and VisionTek GF4 Ti4600
graphic card
Taipei/Taiwan; 06-MAR-2002 - EPoX Computer Co., Ltd., a leading developer
and manufacturer of high end mainboard, storage and communication solutions
is giving today an official press statement, regarding technical issues
being discovered by users when using an EP-8KHA, EP-8KHA+ and a VisionTek
GF4 Ti4600 graphic card.
Mr. Thomas Huang, VP of Research & Development Dept. of EPoX Computer said:
"Regarding the high capacitor on EPoX motherboard EP-8KHA, EP-8KHA+, it was
designed to optimize the stability of a DDR motherboard. While DDR solution
was first introduced in the first quarter of 2001, according to the
technical information the power consumption of the DDR memory will be much
higher than SDRAM architecture. EPoX's technicians decided to use switch
circuit design. And the output end came important. After evaluating all the
graphic cards sold in the market and ensure there was no mechanism
conflicts, to keep wider tolerance in memory voltage and current, the bigger
capacitors (1500?f/6.3V, LSR capacitors) was complemented to reserve big
space and optimize the voltage stability. Each EP-8KHA and EP-8KHA+ even
equipped with 2 of them.
However according to the real experiences of using the selling DDR modules
in the market, the power consumption is much lower than it was reported. In
fact one 1500?f/6.3V, LSR capacitors is enough to handle it. In EPoX
internal testing, the stability and overclockability is still very high
without any influences."
By case users has difficulty in installing VisionTek GF4 Ti4600 graphic card
on EPoX EP-8KHA+ and EP-8KHA, the first solution will be removing the CE6
capacitor. If users are not experienced in solder iron, they can use pliers
to remove this component. If users are still confused with it or have any
questions, they can contact any EPoX branch office in worldwide.

comunque ho l'impressione che tale problema affligga
le rev. 1.3, nelle 2.0 (la mia) i condensatori incriminati sono fuori
dall'area critica, infatti sui forum di 
amdmb.com
o trovato gente che è riuscita a montare tale scheda.
inoltre o recuperato le specifiche  AGP 2.0,
e in effetti le rev 1.3 hanno dei condensatori fuori posto,
mentre la 2.0 no.
