A sequel to my topic, "onboard video card dying, or something else?", where Shadow_7 posted:

I had a bad cap on an asus rt-n16. One of my old motherboards had a similarly spec'd cap that I replace it with. $80 saved.

If the bad caps are on the motherboard, a new video card wont save it.
Out of curiosity,...
