So I opened my case the other day, and saw that some of my capacitors are looking not-so-good:

Should I be worried?
So far I havent had any problems with the system, its still as stable as ever.
This board is coming up on 2 years old. Its a MSI K7N420 Pro nForce if that means anything.

    If they blow, and these will, they will prob destroy the mobo. If you want to keep it think about replacing them now.

    They are leaking.
    Replace them, or scrap the mobo.

    Update: Yeah my motherboard died in February, 10 months shy of the 3yr warrenty running out. MSI sent me a new one and its doing excellently. No loss of data either, I think i may have gotten lucky.

    MSI's RMA service is pretty good from my experience! :thumbsup:
