    Refresh rates at widescreen res's.

    Have a Sun T-rex (Sony 24" widescreen tube) but if I use a 16:9 or 16:10 res I cant adjust the refresh rate above ~66 or ~76hz.. even editing INF's and other files and the registry was no help. This isnt related to it being a Sun monitor before you think that, either. On a related note, got...

    200v caps in place of 50v caps

    I know you can use "overrated" caps, but is there a limit on how overboard you can go? All i've got are these 200v 1000uf caps.. would rather have 100v or 50v 2000uf caps as thats closer to what were originally in place (Pyramid PB480 amplifier with a couple 50v 1000uf caps that broke off...
