can it be fixed?? coz the cost of caps?? if not worth it, then i dont want to repair it..

Those solid capacitors are a b**** to solder.


Can, but good caps cost quite a bit. About RM2 each.

rm2 only arr?? sounds promising for me to try to fix back my old gc...
but afraid have to search all over penang to find those caps...

i buy not more than 50 cent la,if buy good around 1.50.

depends on wat caps u looking for lo,
recent high end gc cap,
it cant be found easily,
like mine cant be found even i go every shop in kampung bengali there...

It took me a long time to find them too, but in the end I found a source also.

The 50 sen one is like using some Cap Ayam sdn bhd PSU with a C2D..
You know what happens after that..

The caps I replace on that dinosaur system you borrowed from me are good caps. Good enough that I'll be giving a 1 year money back personal warranty against capacitor failure to whoever buys it.

Actually, their iron is of a higher wattage. The trick is to use a high watt iron to rapidly melt the solder and finish the soldering quickly so you do not expose components to high heat for a long period of time.
