    Gigabyte 7VT600P-RZ?

    anyone recap any Giga 7VT600P-RZ, seems like a nice board but dunno what wrong... replaced some of the caps with some caps from some other dead boards.... it gets to a point where the cpu fan spins, 2 mosfets get 5volt input other 2 get no input no output....

    can anyone tell me of there experience with these boards?

    sidenote, first time I try going any further then replacing caps on a working board:P... little electronics knowledge, good soldering experience:P

    Check for shorted caps..... try new capacitors. Usually a short will shut down the PSU though.....

    Also, check for burned traces and recheck the solder joints.

        none with this MB

        Suppose the first question was it booting up before you change caps?
        how bad to look at and what brand series were they?

        but yeah recheck work as above if it was booting before hand
        you say you used "used caps?"
        (ideally not a good idea)

        from a photo image I found it uses (I think 2 phase VRM)
        (link for ref only)

        There is usually (for want of the correct technical terms ) a top and bottom Mosfets pairs
        So 2 I think should have voltage but 2 wont have voltage (per say)
        So that sort of sounds right
        are any mosfets getting very hot? per chance

        There can be a few reasons why it wont start up and the state it was in before recap can help work this out.

        So a bit more info might help us help you

        Cheers

I will say though there is a chance his psu was shotty and may of been the cause
