Certainly not any miracle work like others perform around here, but I saved this Asus V9280 AGP 8x Ti4200 64MB from the "recycle bin." I bought this on eBay some while back for $28.00/shipped from Ukraine. The seller advertised and demonstrated it worked, but it was missing a capacitor. When it arrived to me, it no longer worked (They packed it just fine). I did try to replace the missing capacitor, but the card still didn't work. I didn't ask for a refund because it was a gamble. Usually I win, but not this time, so it seemed.
Anyway, I put if off to the side to attend to later. Today, I searched through a small pile of my broken cards for another capacitor after comparing the Ti4200 to a working one online (I'm guessing the first time I misidentified the correct capacitor to use). The donor MX420 (shown) graciously gave up the part. A short time later, the Ti4200 was back in business. No image, 2D, or 3D problems. Clocks report 252MHz/512MHz. Passed 3DMark 2001SE fine (as shown; defaults used at 1024x768 32-bit color on an Intel D815EEA using a PIII@1GHz/133MHz), passed the "Turok" test where I turn up all candy to maximum w/vsync@181fps, and the card plays DOS/Terminator SkyNET hi-res mode 640x480 with no issues.
A good day.
