GeForce4 TI4600 broken capacitor

[oz3050]

I recently was removing my video card from a friends computer and when i was taking it out my hand slipped and broke off a capacitor. Anyone have some suggestions on what to do? All there is on the cap is 330 and 6s 1LD which im guessing is a part number. I don't know if that 330 is pico f or micro f so getting a new one at radio shack is risky. Anyway, it's a PNY GeForce4 Ti4600. If you've got any ideas please let me know.

If its still under warranty, try to send it back. I got a PNY Verto GeForce4 Ti4200 replaced no problem.

Well it should have a lifetime warranty. What do you think i should tell them? I don't think they'd be to quick on replacing it if i said a cap broke off while removing it.

yea..

most companies dont rma if its your own fault. and it would be hard to prove otherwise in this case too

you could tell them it just fell off, perhaps
