How often do you need to replace cap kits on a new betson multisync monitor?

That's a currently manufactured model. Caps last 3 to 5 years.

What Ken said is true, but in reality you might not have to replace them for 10 or 15 years. I have plenty of monitors that old and older running on the original caps that have no issues at all. But I have also seen 5 year old monitors with cap problems, so it could go either way.
