Evening all,
Have recently attempted to move my 8gb Pi 5 from a GeekPi case to a Sunfounder Piroman 5 Max.
I had previously installed some heatsinks on my Pi 5, in order to install in the Sunfounder case I had to remove the heatsinks.
I suspect this is when I accidentally hit a component.
Was hoping someone here may be able to identify it ?
Fortunately I am handy with a soldering iron and have a microscope to have a go at the repair/replacement.
I have taken picture of the missing component via my microscope - apologies for the not so great image, hopefully it'll be enough to go on.
Many thanks, Vaughn.
