I need some help knowing a) what is the spec on the capacitors that Louis replaced and b) where can I buy them. I know that there are capacitor books available from the online store but I am not sure which book contains the capacitor I need.
For the future, post component location in schematic; easier and faster than watching a video.
Also posting 820-xxxxx code of the board in title is a basic rule.
Considering 820-01521 board, C6405/16 are both 10uF/25V.
You should get them from scrap boards.
I doubt you can find correct value and size (0603) in a capacitors book.
Thanks! I'll try to remember the rules going forward.
I did some searching and found this capacitor (CM105X5R106M25AT), would this possibly work? I'm very new to reading schematics and data sheets but it seems like it matches up with the specs you had listed.
Looks perfect.
You should consider to make scrap board stocks, if plan to stay in this business.
Is the only way to get SMCs, for example.
The rest of the boards (no CPU/RAM, nor GPU) bought on Aliexpress/eBay, serve for caps, MOSFETs, ICs...
