    PS3 Slim Nec Tokin Questions...

    Hiya ! New Here from Philippines...

    i recently have a strange PS3 issue
    i have to power it on for almost 10 tries before it boots normally

    then i disassembled the unit i saw one of the NEC Tokin plastic is a little bloated than the others...

    anyways is there an alternate way to replace this like the Tantalum Caps Method used on laptops ? and how many should i use for each tokin ?

    NEC TOKIN 0E108 marked on the chip not sure of the value
    and what tantalum caps value to use too...

    thanks

      I'm pretty sure it's not just the slims with the Nec/Tokin OE128 Proadlizers...

      I'm sort of shocked how all of the PS3 "repair" videos I've seen have never once brought that up. They "reflow" the CPU, some residual heat gets on the caps and reforms them somewhat, the console works for a month, but the most important thing is that they got paid.
      "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
