Hi everyone,
I recently acquired this card from a seller who was selling a PowerMac G5 for parts. He mentioned that the video card was probably broken too.
Upon closer inspection, I can tell the reason why it won't work: it's missing a bunch of CAPS! (it's also missing an inductor - 1.0uH).
It's a nice card as it's one of the few AGP cards that will support 2560 x 1600 resolution on a PowerMac G5 using a 30" Cinema Display.
Looking at the card, it appears to be missing the following:
1x 1.0uH inductor - orange square
2x 1500uF 2.5V (markings on the SMD cap are 425 SVP 1500 2.5) - light blue rectangle
3x 330uF 16V (markings on the other SMD caps are 437 SVP 330 16) - red/maroon square
1x 470uF 35V (markings on the other SMD caps are 470 V FK 49EC) - yellow circle
I sourced the part numbers based on the caps/inductor that remain on the card.
Can someone help me identify the cap manufacturers? I'd like to replace with the same ones. I'd assume that Mouser or DigiKey would carry these but want to make sure I order the correct ones.
've attached a picture of the card pointing one the missing caps/inductor.
Thanks in advance....JP
