The blue-board XFX 6200 is not only older than the much more commonly seen black ones, it also likes to destroy itself. I flashed one (with the downclocked ROM!) to see what difference in heat it makes to my black 6200, and after about 15 minutes of iTunes audio playback and nothing else running, A LOT of smoke came out of the small ventilation holes for the GPU on the Case‘s top. Seems like the capacitor plague infected the blue boards but not the black ones, as especially taiwan capacitors like on this blue board were infected. Stay away from these!
You cant really see anything in the picture but the black capacitor on the right side of the smal ferrit coil was the faulty one.
