Re: Dell OptiPlex GX270 - multiple bad cap failures

In the past few months the company I work for have been having problems with a number of GX270's. We presumed it was just a fault with a couple of our systems but we have had about 8 GX270's gradually getting worse and worse.

The general consensus is the following:

The first thing to start failing is the onboard video card - the monitor just goes blank and a fiddle with the cable or a reboot brings the video card back to life.
After a while the PC may start to randomly hang and reboot.
