Dear Forumers, I would like to ask any experience LYN member to guide me (or other forum member) on giving us a complete detail "Replace motherboard capacitor for dummy" guide. I had search trough google but the guide given there seems to be either too brief or too technical. http://www.overclockers.com/tips1081/http://www.badcaps.net/tips/Moderators: Dear Mods, I am not sure whether I am in hte right forum or not. if u find my topic is in the wrong forum please kindly move for me/PM me, thank you.

The main thing that u need to have is the soldering iron, the sucker and the correct value of capasitor with some skills and luck. Becareful with the mobo and dont screw up nearby capasitors and transistors.

i have changed my caps last time, not all a few and but mainly add in for which one is missing from it's original location. you can go for rubycon caps, for best quality go for solid aluminium caps Attached thumbnail(s)

I did a cap mod last time but i dont see any difference. So before knowing what part is hitting the wall, cap mod is useless.
if you asus user, droop mod will help you
