    Yes. I've repaired and made my own brackets and holders for both Intel and AMD boards.
    Here is one fairly recent example:

    And another one:

    I also had the top plastic part of an AMD retention bracket break off once. FYI, PVC glue works very well for certain computer plastics - mainly for ABS and sometimes PC (polycarbon). Whatever you glue with that will hold as if the plastic never broke.

      GTX 1660 Ti: Missing GPU Details & Abnormal Behavior - Possible Faulty IC?
      by lolich112
      Hello everyone,

      I've been encountering some perplexing issues with my ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti Gaming OC and am seeking insights or potential solutions from the community.

      Symptoms:

      Initially experienced a gradient-style black screen from the top.
      Poor performance: ~10 FPS on the lock screen.
      Encountered artifacts followed by black screens.
      After addressing a PSU-related problem, still observed a performance drop (~10 FPS).
      Upon using GPU-Z:
      Memory size shows as 0MB.
      Unknown bus width and bandwidth reported....

      Why doesn't current just bypass faulty capacitors.
      by Spudgun
      Hello esteemed members. I appreciate that my question will strike some as being somewhat childishly simple, but it genuine perplexes me! I have repaired several laptops before by removing a faulty capacitor that was short-circuiting the motherboard, whereupon the laptop would then work. For me, it begs the question that, if the current can bypass where the capcitor was when it has been removed, why didn't it just bypass it when it was present and faulty,? I can't get my head round the premise that if the other side of the capacitor is connected to ground, then why doesn't the current simply bypass...

      Acer A317-53 need help to disable faulty onboard ram
      by b-slayer
      Hello.
      I have an Acer Aspire A317-53 laptop with faulty onboard ram modules, after online searches, I have only found two options to get it working :
      - first one is to modify le bios to disable the onboard ram.
      - second one is to disable the onboard ram by desoldering some components on the mainboard.

      so after some hours google-ing, i have to give-up the modified bios option, main reason is I couldn't find anywhere a such modified Bios, alternate reason is that if windows update makes a bios update, the problem is always here...

      so i found that my motherboard...

      Ryobi 36V (aka 40V) 6Ah Faulty Battery Pack
      by brispuss
      Purchased a Ryobi 36V 6Ah battery pack maybe just over a year ago.

      Battery pack had been used on about 3 or 4 occasions for powering a cordless lawnmower. I was wanting to use this battery pack again recently, but on checking the battery charge state via the battery pack test button, there was no LED indication at all of charge state which suggested the pack was fully discharged.

      I found this to be odd as I usually fully recharge battery packs shortly after use. So either the pack developed some sort of fault which completely discharged the pack cells (after recharging),...
