Re: GA-8IHXP

Thanks for the reply. I just check my old board (the one that failed 3 years ago, 2 days after computer bought). But I noticed they had different cap brands. Even for same motherboard version 2.1. Old one that failed is GSC and second both I have is G-luxon. Same cap was popped on that one as well. It seems Gigabyte knows the problem but replace cheap cap with another cheap cap that lasts until the end of warranty.

I think I will try replacing first. If it does not work, I will buy new board. Can you suggest any motherboard that uses quality cap.

Re: GA-8IHXP

Hello. I have same board GA-8IHXP. Since last month. I have stripes show up on monitor when it boots and crash as soon as window loading screens ends. I thought it is software. Then I think it is hardware problem, since I see stripe even in POST page (first page when yuo start your computer). Stripe show up in some color not the whole screen. So I thought graphic card is bad. But when I open case to check, I see that small fan that is installed on a heat sink on a chipset next to CPU is not working and same capacitor that you guys show in earlier thread is slightly...
