Quoted from jibmums:Can someone tell me what this thing is at the top of the CPU, and why it has what looks like hot glue around it? There's another one (at least one) and it also has what looks like hot glue. Odd way to attach electronic components, if that's original.
That is an inductor on the 5v line coming into the board acting as a choke. It is original. The glue keeps the whole assembly on the board since there are just two wire ends soldered to the board. It's rated at 44mH.
