Capacitor fell off Graphics Card
I have had a long running issue with my Radeon HD 6950 showing glitched temperature readings at times, so I was going through the water cooling connections/Block setup when it seems one of the attached components came off of the PCB. I had a closer look and it seems to have been originally glued on or such as the bottom part had a plastic casing that attached to the PCB with two connectors that come through the bottom casing. Seemed like an easy fix.
In any case I thought I'd see if the PC comes on first, as it's water cooled, and I would only really want to take it all apart as a last resort. To my surprise it came on straight away and I am in fact making this post using it. I am now considering leaving it off if everything is functioning correctly. Though as I am unable to identify the component I am also not sure of it's importance.
The component reads 'K001 100 16v' on it's upper side and has a blue side marking. Here's an image of the PCB with the detached component highlighted.
