Re: emachines T6420 cooked caps on board?

Well I've never done a cap replacement or soldering on circuit boards or small electronics but I figured this was a perfect opportunity to learn since its scrap anyway if I mess it up. I've already pulled the board and pulled the bad caps. I'll see if I can find some locally tomorrow and replace them.

You guys nailed it. They are indeed KZG 3300uF 6.3V, well done.

OK, just a quick introduction, I'm a networking guy, not an electrical guy. I have no problem with standard trouble shooting but generally draw the line when it comes to physical failures on the mobo. I figure this site will provide handy. I'm just confirming with your expertise that this board is likely smoked(not worth replacing the caps to the user)
