    I have a bulged JEE cap from MS Industrial KYP-350W PSU.
    They're probably not as bad as GSC but I've seen them only once - and one of them was bad.

      BTW jonny, is there any chance we can see the complete schematic/diagram/circuit design of those PSUs?
      I only have the Wintech (the decent one) diagram, not the Youngyear.

      WIN-PCB.pdf

      WIN-CASE.pdf

      And no values for the components.
      Rest in peace BFG. You were... a job...

        One of these damn things fried my friend's PC at the last LAN party. Smoke, bang, everything.

        Those with Fortrons (me and all the rest) kept on shootin!

          thanks, that's also interesting.

          hmmm, i think we should have S.M.A.R.T built in for PSU

          >hardwareguy, so they are xconect and fortron, right? so what is the story after that, did he/you autopsy those dead things?
          days are so short when you actually do something..

            Testing ATX PSUs under load - Does loading the ATX 24 pin also load EPS & PCIE?
            by AJ847.63e
            Hi Folks,

            Just wanted to clear up a misunderstanding of mine (or what I expect is one). Isn't the 12V rail from the 24 pin, EPS and PCIE separated? IE if I put a power resistor on the ATX 12V pin that is not going to load, thus tell me if the EPS or PCIE rails are fine?

            I was recently watching ArIs from Hardware Busters video on how to properly test ATX PSUs without using 5 figure Croma substations.

            The PCB adapter he used breaks out the 12, 5 and 3.3V pins from the 24 pin and gives you banana plugs to connect to. That is a bit useless is it not? Aren't...

            Is this screen cracked?
            by Storyteller12
            I've never seen a screen cracked like this and still have a perfect picture.

            Maybe it's the diffuser cracked like on some of the Samsung NU series.

            Just curious what you guys think. TV is for sale in my area and thinking of maybe trying my luck.

            Wanted some other opinions before I pull the trigger...

            cracked tantalum cap on a video card. safe to apply power without fireworks?
            by ChaosLegionnaire
            please refer to the attached pics. is it safe to apply power with that tantalum cap like that without causing fireworks? i dont wanna burn a hole through the pcb as the gpu chip is on the other side.

            happened to me once before with a shorted mlcc. shorted mlcc on a vrm power phase burned a hole through the pcb power section but thankfully that was nowhere near the gpu chip. but the video card still ended up in the landfill anyway tho as the burn-through was not fixable.

            so do let me know what u think of the chipped tantalum there. thanks....

            Modding Two PSUs to Output 12V
            by RukyCon
            Hello again, this might be a bit of a far-fetched question, but is it possible to modify a 36v and a 48v power supplies to output 12v? Both power supplies appear to use the same topology, they both also have a dedicated 12v winding wired to the control chips, meaning that as soon as i change it so the main output is 12v, then the dedicated windings will not be able to output 12v, meaning it will not start up. However, if i were to then take the main output and tie it to where the dedicated 12v output would go, then it should be able to run fine?

            Anyway here is a quick overview of...

            Giving away parts from otherwise cracked monitors/TVs: Does anyone know a group/forum
            by spartantravis
            Hi Guys
            I was just taking apart an old Medion 24inch monitor that had a cracked screen. I needed the PMMA sheet inside but I am left with the working electronics, bezels and frame. It seems a waste to just throw it out considering the extortionate prices that some vendors charge for replacement parts.
            At the same time, I dislike the commerical aspects of selling stuff.
            Does anyone know of any group where people who repair monitors/TVs trade/donate parts to each other?
            The monitor is an MD 20830 23.8inch. The owner left it face down while moving stuff and somehow cracked...
