My powermac g4 is not booting up. Do you think the cpu might be fried?

The mobo doesn't look that bad except for this. Desoldered the capacitor and checked it last week, it was fine but the mobo looks like shit
>>
>>57367784
That's not "fine" anon
>>
>>57367784
that cap looks fucked
>>
Have you checked the PSU? MDDs are known for their faulty power supplies.
>>
>>57367784
99% sure the problem is that cap...

I speculate that it's not the cap but the area around it
>>
>>57367784
Also are you sure the traces aren't fucked there? Did it blow up or did you do that with the iron?

I desoldered the cap, measured it with a multimeter and it was fine

>>57367842
It was already like that, even worse
>>57367803
Yeah, already replaced the psu when it failed but it is alright
>>
>>57367854
You may have to run some wires to recover the traces, if that's even the problem.
>>
>>57367875
What would you try to replace first then, CPU or mobo?
>>
>>57367987
bump

Its dead Jimmy, let it go.
