    Replacing MOSFET on Video Card with non standard size

    Hi,

    After probing a faulty Sapphire 7750 video card, I isolated the problem to one of the MOSFETs, marked 4926N RWU4L. After searching, I found the datasheet:
    https://cdn.badcaps-static.com/pdfs/...b8b5d8a6ee.pdf

    Only problem is, it's impossible to find this MOSFET in my country (Bulgaria).

    My idea was, to buy a more standard format MOSFET with matching specifications and use that in place. It'll be ugly but it may bring back the video card cheaply.

    Having checked, I can obtain this MOSFET locally:


    Most of the characteristics match or improve on the original (e.g. Ig MAX). Would it be a suitable replacement, or am I missing a red herring?

    Thanks

    I apologise if this is in the wrong forum. I wasn't sure which to put it in.

    Looks like all the specs are within reasonable tolerance, it shouldn't be a problem, at least electrically. I'm not sure how you're going to physically get the part to fit though. I'm usually all about not buying stuff on ebay that could be counterfeit, but in this case, it may be a better option.

      GeForce RTX2080 Super Aero video gaming card issues help need

      This is from my son’s gaming computer that at first had minor overheating issues when playing a very intense game with it causing the computer to crash or reboot

      Then bough a new motherboard and a new computer case that a cooling system in it already installed also brought the cooling system for this video card but now the issue with it is that it randomly rebooted screen goes blank randomly and suddenly video freezing or started with video being there then blank screen and then the video comes back or it just stays blank for a while and then maybe it will come back but it...

      How do you test MOSFET in laptops ?
      by Jane
      I tried to use this method:

      Testing an N-channel MOSFET:

      Step 1: Discharge the Gate (turn off the MOSFET)
      Place the black probe (COM) on the Source (S) and the red probe on the Drain (D). The multimeter should show no continuity (high resistance or "OL" – open line).
      Then, touch the black probe to the Source (S) and the red probe to the Gate (G). This discharges any stored charge in the Gate, turning the MOSFET off.

      Step 2: Charge the Gate (turn on the MOSFET)
      Now, place the red probe on the Gate (G) and the black probe on the

      DIY PCIe x1 video card...
      by eccerr0r
      Anyone try just cutting all the extra pins and card edge of a PCIe x16 card to make a PCIe x1 video card, just to stuff another slot and connect more monitors?

      Would this be considered a ghettomod?
