Can you upload pic to diff host I just replaced the 25v 100uf cap because of sound popping in and out and going so low that I had to switch to external amp to hear anything.I looked at the card and saw brown around the cap and it ran down the side of the card a little,anyway I replaced it with a cap from old mobo.Waiting to see if sound cuts out again.I'm thinking it can be heat related because the problem started when I sandwiched it between sli 285's,but it didn't stop when I moved the card.So I placed a His iClear between the 285's to act as a EMI/Heatsheild and to help w/SNR ratio.

Another thing the cap on the forte says shl the one I used to replace it says smg what is that because it sounds clearer.

Edit:just went out again,this is a gen 1 card.

Mine is completing 2.5 Yrs now ... still fine. Latest upgrades maded this week.

Using mine since January 2009, more than 5 years now without a major problem.

Only small problem I have reoccurring on a regular basis is that, when two or more audio-sources are open and one of them is internet with Flash, I get an humming-sound through every sound my speakers/headset play.
Have to close all sound-sources (and Firefox in particular) and the humming disappears.
