I have a 17" 1.8ghz G5. These were known to have problems with blown circuits on the motherboard. I dont recall the name of the parts (tranducers?), but i hear they can be fixed cheap with a solder iron and 2 30$ parts. Anyone have any experience with this? As always, thanks in advance.
Got a tip for us?

You want an iMac G5 Capacitor Kit. There are different ones for different models. They are pretty cheap but take a lot of work to desolder the old caps and solder the new ones.
