Make sense.
But there are other auxiliary components that can fail earlier, like electrolytic capacitors.
Each individual component carries a certain risk of breaking. Add to that the interconnections between components. Wrt electrolytic capacitors, I have had at least three motherboards fail due to those. /Per -- /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
