Re: Dell XPS 600 GS375 Motherboard

Ah, well thats certainly lame lol. Eh at that point i'm better off yanking all the usable components and throwing them in a new case. Obviously I'd need a new PSU but the rest should be usable. I'll try replacing the caps and inductor first and hopefully i'll get lucky =)

Re: Dell XPS 600 GS375 Motherboard

Gotcha. Yeah i'm just trying to get this comp up and running as cheaply as possible. I work for a datacenter who basically threw this computer in the garbage so if I can replace a few caps and get it working then I'll have a decent computer for next to free. I see other people mentioning that modifications are required to use a new mobo in this case but worst case scenario I will replace the mobo entirely with a cheap SLI compatible abit or something.

Re: Dell XPS 600 GS375 Motherboard

Thanks for the reply. Thankfully I work in a datacenter as tech support so there is no shortage of old servers or PSUs to tear apart. I kinda figured it would be tough to get the exact specs on the inductor but it was worth a shot. Still hoping someone can give me the exact capacitors I need to purchase though =)

Re: Dell XPS 600 story!

Hello, the OP mentioned repairing an inductor. How did you go about doing this because i have the same blown caps and fried inductor issue. Did you repair as in "replace" and if so do you have the specs on the inductor so I might find one for purchase? Also if you happen to have the specs on the capacitors as well so I can purchase those I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Dell XPS 600 GS375 Motherboard

Hello, I have almost the exact same issue. Blown caps and fried inductor. I know replacing the caps won't be a problem but does anyone have any information on the inductor? I have no clue where to start as far as the inductor is concerned. Also did anyone ever get the exact info on those caps? Mine are the same so it would save me the trouble of figuring it out lol. Thanks in advance for any help.

EDIT: Oh and I say almost the same issue because my board doesn't look burnt lol.
