Surprisingly this GA-7VKML still worked with six GSC 3300uf capacitors in this condition, driving a Duron 1200

Re: Gigabyte board works with GSC capacitors
nice you have missed some though. what is that one starting to bulge in the middle of the ram. i have seen some gigabyte looking like the first pic to fuck the ram also permanently eventually

Re: Gigabyte board works with GSC capacitors
That one in the middle of the RAM just looks like a deep vent stamp, not really bulging.Ludicrous gibs!

well ok a memtest would be conclusive

I think it is deep vent stamping - no sign of bulgingAttached Filesbetter to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubtComment

Re: Gigabyte board works with GSC capacitors
As I mentioned in an earlier 'bad caps irony' thread, caps don't have to be spilling their electrolyte out to have gone bad - they can fail silently and you would never know. On the other hand, you can have a whole load of caps fail inside a PC and it still remains stable - there was a PC at my workplace like that!Originally posted by pfrcom
As a general rule though, when you find bad caps you should replace at least the bad ones as soon as possible. If the other ones are a known bad brand, it may be a good idea to replace those too to save you more work in the future.
I can't see any bulging or venting in the second set of pics, where you have replaced the bad caps. I have seen caps that look like they've caved in though, more often than not it's the result of a deep vent stamp (or physical impact, though that often causes similar symptoms to vented caps).You know there's something wrong when you open your PC and it has vented Rubycons...Comment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.
Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.
I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.
The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.
With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow
This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

Hi,
I discovered a strange behaviour of GIGABYTE GA-H110M-S2 board.
General test conditions:
- Tested with Core i5 6500 and Core I7 6700K - no difference
- Default BIOS settings, but tried also altering several memory setting - does not change anything
What is wrong:
With BIOS F1 and F2 the board normally POST's and boots to Windows 11 with 2 x Patriot Viper Steel PVS416G440C9K RAM (4400MHZ, Samsung B-Die chips)
When BIOS upgraded to anything above F2 (ie. F20-F27b) the board POST stucks after 3 Debug Codes on Code C2... -
Hi There,
This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.
After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...
