My hp 10/100 8port died a similar death but i couldn't see any bad caps in it. Got seriously hot thou. Phoned HP and they RMA'd it for me. gotta love lifetime warrenties. -
hehe. Already far ahead with that one. Have a stack about an inch high of printed reports including the IEEE report about the problem. Bit hard to ignore the IEEE report as well
Just waiting to see what the credit card company say. If they say no then they are stuffed because I'll sue as they are jointly liable cos i bought the board with the CC

G-Luxon silver cap with green coating and grey writing. 1500 6.3V going bad on a ECS K7S5A. My uncle blew a ECS K7S5A mainboard the other month. Bad caps and a shorted component. That had most of the power rail 1500 caps bad. 6-8 i think out of a cluster of 10.Leave a comment:

Not too much info about nforce1 boards floating around. Lots for the N2's.
GSC aren't nice. They seem to have fixed the problem thou. I've seen newer boards with GSC's in good nick thou so fingers crossed about it. (Got a ECS k7s5a board with one odd looking cap. I'm keeping an eye on it.)
Nope to recapping it. I count at least 14 major bad ones. I think is 33 or 34 to replace in total to be sure. I'm hassling the retailer for a refund/replacement. Got told pretty much "its out of warrenty get stuffed." :evil:
Its 6 weeks...Leave a comment:

GSC
GSC - These are used on Leadtek boards. Silver caps with Green wrapping and Gold writing. 1000 and 1500 6.3V are key ones to go but be aware that the 330 6.3V ones also leak. the 330's are silver caps with purple wrap and gold writing. my motherboard and video card were bought around october 2002 as a time reference.

Bought a Leadtek Twinforce 2 bundle with a Geforce4 Ti4200 card in it. Card has 3 caps leaking. 1 GSC 1000 6.3V, 2 GSC 330 6.3V caps. one of the 330's is definatly leaking. I am going to replace the other just in case.
