It depends if its RT8206 A or B.
I almost bet the burn have happen because of mismatch in soldering placement.
You must notice the point marking PIN1 and not the layout of the serigraphy written by the manufacture.
If you notice the ISL don't have the text written in the same direction that RT.
Beside the pinout comparison and general specs you must check the LDO current.
A compatible IC may be able to boot up the motherboard but might shutdown when connected to the peripherals.
For example if a board was build with a 100mA LDO IC and you replace it with a 70mA LDO IC it might boot up, but when you connect the HDD it might shutdown.
i got a mcp67mv-a2 chipset that i have to order , but fuck 70 bucks for a new 2010 rev ? .--- i cheked that there is a possible compatibility with the mcp67MD-A2 ..
but they mention on the list
MCP67MV-A2
MCP67MV-A2
MCP67M-A2 and MCP67MD-A2 but only if external video is available
what does that mean , only if external video is available ?
MCP67MV-A2 has the GPU core in it, MCP67MD-A2 does not. So MCP67MD will only replace MCP67MV if there is a separate GPU on the board.
