When i tried to turn on computer it suddenly shut down in booting process..I restarted several times but it kept shut downing. When i clicked on restart one more time, i smelt some smoking. i opened case and under Heatsink one mosfet DrMos was burnt. (See pictures) i took computer to pc master and he said that motherboard can be repaired if he had replacement for that DrMos. Can this motherboard really repaired and where can i buy that mosfet, please give me link or tell me it's serial number, becourse i saw there are some mosfet's on ebay and i don't know which one is compatible with my motherboard. thank you and waiting for your answer

well if this happens normally you can't replace it, thare is a chance that the motherboard tracer ar burned in the insize. I high recumbent look for a replacement bord and pray to the PC GOD that you cpu is fine. (ram runs of the VRM next to the ram so those ar oke)

The best approach is to reach out to the manufacturer's support team. They might be able to identify the issue or arrange service, though it’s less likely they can fix it themselves. You may end up needing a replacement motherboard.

It's really bad here. Your processor might be failing too. Avoid checking any other CPUs in it.

Are you certain the CPU is functioning properly?

It's probable. Check for burn marks or rust at CPU contact areas, even tiny ones. A client with a DELL system experienced damage to a MOSFET, CPU contact point, and RAM pins. I replaced her entire Dell board, Intel CPU, and RAM with a simpler ASUS board and AMD components so she could keep the original unit but avoid high costs.

Replacing a DRMOS chip is challenging when soldered, but unsoldering it makes it easier. You can remove the pads and then mill the chip away without harm. Check out this guide—it might be useful. I do this on a GTX 980Ti.
