Please note the capacitor explosion of P5K-E

[bonobo]

The capacitor of my P5K-E exploded suddenly.
A big load never hung.
The loud sound and the smoke and the smell......

Condition
M/B : ASUS P5K-E
CPU : E6700
PSU : OCZ PowerStream 520W
Vcore : 1.65V
Clock : 4.5GHz
CPU Temp : -70C

I repaired it.

Removal of capacitor


Replacement of capacitor(1000μＦ/16V)


Fortunately, CPU and the power supply were safely.
Mobo came to work when capacitor was exchanged.
I tested it with E6700 and P4-631.
It seems to have made the repair good.
