Well, a customer of mine contacted me about yet another GX270 with bad Rubycon MCZ near the VDRAM FET. She is afraid that almost all the stock of these boards are plagued by this. What gives? Bad batch of caps or just poor board design? Once she sends the board, I'm going to replace it with an OSCON SEPC 560uF after measuring the max potential between the legs does not exceed 4V.
This is the recap I did on one of the boards:

I doubt it is a bad batch because ONLY that particular cap in that particular LOCATION blew up.
