Default Second hand shuttle repairs

So I purchased a Shuttle SP35P2 PRO from WooKiE_MaN, the poor thing had gone through some bashing so I decided I'd purchase it and give it some TLC.
Thread here

as you can see, it was a jolly god job of destruction to the power plug and the rear right corner strut.

all in all, not to bad if I say so myself, the unit is reassembled and working just fine yay!

Slick.

Did you buy a new plug or salvage from another board?

salvaged it from an old dead asrock conroe board
they sure do like using high temp solder on these suckers, even with a decent soldering station (by my ghetto standards ) it was a chore.

one of the reasons I keep a board or two spare, even if dead, sometimes you find something useful on one of them.
have replaced a few dead caps on a few other boards here and there (mostly 478 boards) haven't seen a cap die since they changed to the new ones.
