Problems with Capacitors on the GeForce 7300 GT found in the First Mac Pro

We have just been informed by our sources that some GeForce 7300 GT found in the first Mac Pro are plagued with defective capacitors. As usual, over time those components expand, loosing their functions with associated display artifacts, before turning the graphic card into brick.
Apple is aware of the problem and is currently trying to define the serial number affected by this issue. In addition, the graphic card are replaced at no cost even if it not covered by the warranty anymore.
So, if you own a GeForce 7300 GT installed in your Mac Pro, quickly have a look at it and check capacitors to ensure they did not swell. In case of problem be pro-active and preemptive and quickly contact Apple for an exchange.
