      That Silverstone PSU is pretty good for $39.

      Also, which capacitors are you saying to replace, The 2 large ones ?
      If it were mine I would replace every electrolytic capacitor in there except the two big ones, even with a brand like CS there. If you wanted to just do basic preventative recapping, replacing the caps on the 12V, the entire 5VSB circuit, and those two 4.7uF 50V caps next to the switchers would probably make this thing last quite a long time

        Just bought this After the $20 rebate it was only $25
        http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139026

        Still going to tear into the old one and see if I can repair it for the sake of fixing it and to have a spare lying around then.

          Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

          Title:
          Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

          Description:
          During maintenance on an RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition, I found a capacitor lying on my desk after reassembly.
          I did not notice it detaching, so I am unsure of its original location on the PCB.

          Procedure performed:
          - Removed backplate
          - Cleaned heatsink and PCB with isopropyl alcohol + soft ESD brush
          - Reapplied thermal compound
          - Reassembled card

          Observed behavior after reassembly:
          - GPU powers on and operates normally under...

          Blown capacitor repair on MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT MECH OC
          by MeetingIncapable
          Hello,

          I am new to repairing computer electronics, so excuse any mistakes I make.

          A friend of mine had a broken graphics card (MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT MECH OC) and gave it to me. It does not power on or show any signs of life.
          I identified what looks like the remains of a blown capacitor at the bottom of the board (see picture).

          I wanted to replace the capacitor, but I have two questions:
          • Does this repair have a chance of working? or is a blown capacitor a sign something else is wrong?
          • How do I determine the rating/value of this capacitor? or something
          ...

          Samsung C32HG70 - Blown Ceramic Capacitor (CP813)
          by NuclearSpartan
          Hi everyone,

          I'm new to this, so I apologize for not providing enough details. Is there anything else I need to mention? I'm trying to learn more about electronic/board repairs and hopefully fix my own.

          The only visible issue on my board is one capacitor, CP813, which appears to be labeled R 221k 2kV (possibly obsolete to B 221k 2kV now). My monitor hadn't shown any prior issues, although it is a few years old. Just before the capacitor popped, there was a high-pitched squeal for 2–3 seconds.

          I don't see any other visible damage anywhere else on the board....

          Found a blown capacitor - is it necessary to replace?
          by expertreader
          Hi all, Acer Nitro 5 - GH51M LA-K862P Rev 1A motherboard. I went through all the troubleshooting steps but couldnt find a short on any coils. By chance, ended up finding a blown capacitor PCZ49 which is suppose to be 2.2uF. I can see plenty of 2.2uF in the same +5VALW line which will all parallel up anyway - do you guys think it is critical for this cap to be replaced or i can get away without one?...

          Can not find Model/Value of Thermistor.
          by nmbb
          Machine: Autoclave.
          Brand/Model: SANYO MLS-3780
          Manual: (Sorry search option not working on this PDF)



          Hello guys, this autoclave running with 2 thermistors already connected TH1 and TH3(on CN1,CN2 sockets). One for the water temperture and second one for chamber temperature. But there is another emtpy socket for optional third thermistor CN2 wich is for TH2 for object temperature. I wanna add the third thermistor TH2 to CN2 socket. But i can't figure what model/brand/value i need to use. In manual document, there is no info about TH1 and TH3 model number...
