About a month ago, my son shut down his unstable (crashes during stressful apps, like games) PC with A780GM-A board. Two days ago, I tried to fire it up to go through a troubleshooting routine, but the PC failed to post....fast forward to today. I have identified one failed capacitor (1000uf 6.3v) next to the battery. Board was still under warranty but in the third year, so ECS says "pay us diagnostic fee and we send you new one". Thats probably not going to happen, to be honest, I have no intention in paying for an older chipset.
The question is... board does not post, is the capacitor pictured a known bad cap. For this board, which capacitors should i replace for good measure??
