evga gtx 460 missing electronic part ?!! Thursday, December 01, 2011 6:10 AM (permalink)
hello,
 
I was surprised to see that one of my two gtx 460 evga 1gb has one missing electronic part.
I discoverd that when cleaning its cooling system.
 
The card is working very good and I haven't had any issues with it , so does evga compagny put more electronic part for the fun or what ? !
   
the code of the electronic part is C103 , ill link the photo as soon as evga forum will allow me. 
 
best regards

          have you take a look at some pictures online of your card??
          some newer revisions have less screws on the back and maybe they also decided some part on the back is not needed anymore or something. cards change after a  revision.

            hello,
             
            As i'm a new member i'm unable to send picture link before 3 days I guess.
             
            However I want to clarify that the componant wich i guess is a capacitor is being removed or extracted .

            If you google ( capacitor) and look for images you will see two filaments on the bottom of the capacitor, wich is the input output.
            well it goes inside the capacitor till half way. When you extract the capacitor these input output might still attached to the PCB card and this is what I have on my gtx 460. 2 parallel filaments :)
             
            I hope I made it clear .
             
            thanks

              Things are not as complicated as they seem.
              Just upload your picture with abload or similar, and then post the link.
              Just because you're paranoid, don't mean that people aren't out to get you!

                  One shouldn't write without focusing...
                   
                  that is what I meant! Post the link as text. I think we are capable of copy&paste the adress.

                      no man i'm not an asian , its been few month that i closed this post but it seems not.
                       
                      As for the missing part evga has replied me that indeed it's a missing capacitor and that i should use my guarantee to change my card.
                      I didn't  because  for the moment it's working very well , overclocked up to 945/2160 wich i find amazing . so i'm keeping it .
