I've a 6800 thats had a Capacitor partially knocked off. Were could I take it to get fixed? TV/HiFi repair shop? I thinking I shouldn't try it in my PC till I get it fixed. Any thoughts?

Exactly what i did mate, i partially knocked a capacitor of a 9800pro i used to own. Took it to my local hifi repair shop asked nicely if it was repairable, the guy took it of me for 30secs plonked a dab of solder on and it worked perfectly.

Best thing is he didn’t charge
