Ingenious father fixes dead RTX 3070 with a jerry-rigged capacitor from an old radio — Saves worried son $120 in repair costs, GPU 'works better than before' now

An RTX 3070 with a jerry-rigged capacitor .

We've seen a lot of dead GPUs around here, some of which have been brought back to life in the most fascinating ways possible — this one we found on the r/SerbiaGaming subreddit is no different. An unlucky gamer found himself a savior when their RTX 3070 died, and a repair shop demanded 12,000 Serbian Dinars, or roughly $120, to repair it. That savior was none other than the OP's own father, who fixed his dead GPU with a salvaged capacitor from an old radio, as you can see in the embedded post below. We reached out to the poster for additional details.
