    If it still works, don't worry about it too much. That's all you can do, because trying to predict future effects is not going to be possible.

    I destroyed 2 capacitors on my GF3 Ti200, but it still works fine...

    I used to believe if you broke something then left it alone for ages, fairies would come and see how upset you were and stick it back together. Maybe they will fix your Xp!
