So on an Intel motherboard that I have (Intel Spl500 socket J) board, one of the capacitors has been dented when I brought it home in a suitcase. The capacitor was a 1200 μf, 12 volt. I have bought from Radio-Shack a 1000 μf 35WVDC capacitor and a 2200 μf 35WVDC as replacements. Could I possibly use one of them as a replacement capacitor for the dented one? Also can you wrap the leads in electrical tape because sadly they are axial ones. Thanks! (Photo from Tom's Hardware, edited my yours truly.)

The thing is I'm getting it for free. I can upgrade the OS & RAM, and I'm getting it anyways

The thing is I'm getting it for free so some aspects I don't really mind

I'm getting a A8D for free in the near future and I can not find much information on it. All I could find are that it has a dual core AMD CPU and a nVidia GPU. Any information would be nice, also what type of laptop is it? Also is the CPU overclock-able?

Again it was plugged into a 230V line and the PSU was on 115V, and it blew up

I used it in the states and shipped it over but used my main PC that runs on 230V, so I never used it until recently

No, I plugged it in to a 230V outlet, but the PSU was on 115V

I live in Europe to clear things. So I needed to use my old dell PC to do some work. It has a non automatic switching Delta Electronics 350 Watt PSU. So I plug it in and BANG. The room starts to smell like ozone. Sparks flew out of the back of the PSU fan. What damage did I cause through the over volting of the PSU? The CPU 4pin power was unplugged, but the 24pin ATX connector was still in.

Just checked BIOS the CPU temp slowly rises up. re applying Paste and if not using stock cooler

It is on the booting stage and it shuts off at random. The system POSTs fine, but i have been in windows only 1. The thermal paste is new on the heatsink. In the morning the PC was working fine, just with a different amount of RAM, a diff GPU, and a diff PSU. I cant get into bios most of the time because it shuts of usually before I can

Just now it has, but the OS is in czech & does not boot beyond that

So I built a new PC & it boots fine but it randomly shuts down I pass the POST test and sometimes can boot into windows Specs: PSU: Corsair CX 750M (750 w) Brand new) GPU: GTX 960 4Gb MSI (Brand new) CPU: FX-6300 3.6 GHz (Used) Mobo: GA-78LMT-USB3 (Used & damaged. The USB 3.0 internal has 2 broken pins. possibly other damage) RAM: 18 Gb Balistix sport 4x4 Primary SATA HDD: WD Blue 500 GB Secondary SATA HH D: WD Blue 1 TB

So I decided to overclock my CPU, I got a water cooler so why not? So I go into the BIOS and overclock, I see that it says its core voltage is at 2000. So then I go and set it to 3000, not much but its a start. Then I exit the BIOS and I get a few errors complaining about the overclock, I skip through them. And after I check task manger to see the overclock in action then I notice something out of the ordinary. It says the max CPU voltage is 3.5 GHz but it is at 3.75 GHz! Should I be worried and reset the overclock? Windows is stable. Thanks for Input And CPU is a FX-6300

Also it Might, Might be an engineering sample. Might

I'm Using it for gaming. The reason for a Xeon is because I can pick one up for free. Also it will be on a server board
