This is a story of my eBay purchase that didn't go as planned. I recently won an Intel D865GCL that worked well when received, but I did notice something odd about the board.
It was recapped before and very poorly at that. Caps C3C3, C2C2, and C2C3 seemed to be the wrong replacements.
C3C3 8mm 470uf 16v 105c
C2C2 8mm 470uf 16v 105c
C2C3 10mm 1000uf 16v 85c
Mind you, even though the board booted and ran fine for now, I didn't know how long it would last. So I replaced the three with some 8mm MBZ 820uf 6.3v that I had leftover from a D865GBF recap.
Did I do the right thing; I haven't booted it up yet.
Thanks all…
