Missing Capacitors- MSI RTX 2080

11-12-2024, 12:20 PM

Hi All,

I recently purchased as MSI RTX 2080 SEAHAWK X, which isn't working. I noticed there are 2 capacitors missing from the back- see images. I am wondering, could this explain why the card won't work? I appreciate any help!

RTX 2080 ti (Zotac - triple fan) - No video output / Vcore / Vmem missing

by T4H
Hi,
I have an RTX 2080 ti (Zotac - triple fan) with no video output.
So far I have measured the following:
- PS_FBVDD_PH3_SW = 40 ohm to ground (Micron ICs) - Memory should be fine right?
- 12V power rail present
- 3.3V power rail present
- 5V power rail present
- 1.8V power rail present
- Vcore power rail missing --> PS_NVVDD_VREF is present. (from uP9512P / U812)
- Vmem power rail missing --> Not there because Vcore power rail is missing.
Any idea? I have already tried to flash the BIOS chip (backup got created) - sadly no changes.

Msi Geforce RTX 3060 Ti Twin Fan 8G (Missing Capacitors)

by jossbnr34

Hi, recently acquired a second-hand MSI Geforce RTX 3060 Ti Twin Fan 8G LHR graphics card. After spending two days trying everything and going crazy because my PC didn't detect it, and the fans weren't spinning, I couldn't figure out where the problem was. Yesterday, I found that some capacitors were missing, and some were broken. I imagine it might have been due to a fall or something like that. I'm trying to find a diagram of my card to see what type of capacitors it uses and their voltage to attempt a repair if possible. I'm new to this, but I have done some simpler soldering repairs on video...

MacBook Air 820-3209-A Missing (3) AGX 22uF Decoupling Capacitors

by Cory Marqusee

Hi Everyone,

I have a MacBook Air I've repaired, a mid-2012 13-inch 820-3209-A. It works. My only concern is that it is still missing (3) 22uF (0402 4V 20%) VAGX decoupling capacitors. Specifically, capacitors C1730, C1731, and C1732.

How necessary are these capacitors? It has (11) 22uF to begin with; missing (3), my board now only has (8).

I've been having difficulty sourcing new replacement capacitors without paying too much. Does anybody have any vendors state-side to recommend? Mouser charges parts + $8 shipping + $7 cutting fee (unless I buy an...

Asus TUF Z390Plus Gaming. Missing capacitors

by dicky96

This board has 14 missing electrolytic capacitors. I have no idea why, that is how I got the board. Whoever removed them did a pretty decent job of it and used flux which was still on the board making it easy to see where they had been working. The only thing I have done so far is used my vacuum desoldering tool to clean the holes of old solder.

As I say, I have no idea why this obviously reasonably skilled person has removed the capacitors as I don't read a short across any of them.

The three near the DIMM and ATX connector slots all read 546ohms (these are all in parallel)...
