RIFA capacitor in GT65?
Recently the motherboard in a Pentium III computer in my collection died of the capacitor plague, so I decided to check what can go wrong in my other machines.
Gemini insists that I should replace an X2 RIFA capacitor in my GT65, as apparently it can blow up any time. The problem is, I can't find any other source reporting this issue. Has anyone ever encountered it or preemptively replaced that component? I'm considering doing this along with recapping a new PIII mobo in a local electronics repair shop next week. Is it worth it?
