Re: Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?
I spent all day working on the first 20mHz of the board before I realized that the e7400 is at the top end of the motherboards FSB with a locked multiplier so I'm glad I didn't order the parts and thank you everyone for your replies.
It was a lga775 board and cpu actually haha. I have liquid cooling on it and it was bugging me not having it OC'd. Oh well it's fine I paid 15 for the processor a year ago and 3- something for the video card and it runs games way better than a PS3 can....

Re: Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?
Thank you sweet. Those are a bit lower in cost.
Do you happen to know if 1.5nF ceramic capacitor on a circuit board is equivalent of 1500pf?

1.5nF capacitors were listed for the vdroop mod which brings vcore down when the cpu has a load.Re: Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?<br...happen to know...Last edited by Valvados; 08-27-2014, 04:37 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?
Hey guys I'm ordering the parts for a motherboard volt mod and droop mod. only 3 bucks so I wanted to order the capacitors for the GPU with it.
I have some additional info on the graphics card, I am 100% sure the capacitors are to blame at the moment however the reason why they blew was another issue, motherboard setting.
This computer will not boot into OS until the area around the capacitors are around 70 to 80 *F. The only thing I think would be affect by temperature would be metal or capacitors and the fact that capacitor...Last edited by Valvados; 08-27-2014, 03:45 PM.Leave a comment:

Resistor Question, ca Variable?
Where would I get a "ca. 50k variable resistor"?
"you replace this "zero" resistor with a ca. 50k variable resistor. Setting this variable resistor to ca. 40k gives a ca. 10% voltage boost - i.e. instead of 1.3V, you get 1.43V."
"reduced by ca. 6%"

Is there a way I can get some? Some of mine leaked b/c of the motherboard causing them to leak or age....Leave a comment:

Re: Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?
I bought it used on amazon from some one, I don't think used items have any sort of warranty.
Now to late for that I've put a capactior for my evga on it still I think some of the others are bad too.
I got some pictures ill post up within the hour.

Zotac GT 240 Leaky capacitor?
My GT 240 slowly went out since I bought it a few months ago. Only got about 30 hours of gameplay on it.
I noticed there is some drops on the under side where the capacitor is and I didn't notice that when I received it used from amazon. Do you think new capacitors will allow me to boot windows with display driver installed? I can no longer boot with display drivers installed tried many different things convinced its the gpu or capacitors on it.
Plugged into my friends mobo made it work until for 2 boots now not working again. Worked okay in his rig accept for GPU-Z...Last edited by Valvados; 11-06-2013, 08:14 AM. -
Re: help needed with rosin flux removal!
guess you can bring the alcohol down to 25% with water if you think the water is safe
I only mention this because I fixed my lcd screen scratch by diluting 50% alcohol to 25%, they say that above 35% can really damage a plastic lcd screen.Last edited by Valvados; 11-06-2013, 08:17 AM.Leave a comment:
