So my retired gaming rig (now doing light weight file serving duty, as well as hosting some of my programming projects and an SVN server) popped a couple caps on the motherboard. Very loud pops. The only thing is though that the computer didn't shut down, in fact I've rebooted it and its posted just fine. I'm wondering if this is something I need to be concerned about.
I went into the BIOS and the voltages look fine for the most part the 5V is a tad on the low side. The system isn't overclocked at all.
Most importantly is this a fire hazard? Can the board run long term on blown caps?
