Has EVGA fixed their capacitor problems?  It's been over a decade since I've had an EVGA motherboard. One of the reasons why I was weary to buy any new EVGA products, despite GREAT customer service attitude - was the fact they supported overclocking, but the motherboard I had couldn't withstand more than 2 years of a 20% overclock with adequate cooling.  While the graphics card came with a lifetime warranty - the motherboard did not.
 
Luckily back in the day, I bought an identical board off eBay and swapped out without reinstalling Winblowz and went on my way back to 20% OC.  The board survives in my attic, unusued.  850GB?  I think.   Came free with the 7800 GT from newegg way back in the day.
 
This was from a time when they say every manufacturer suffered cap issues, but I dunno.  What is the state of capacitor longevity these days?
