Thanks for the reply The resistors are from PC PSU , brand EVGA , model nex650G |

You mean gray not silver, because silver is only for tolerance So what about the resistor that start with gray? |
| Wallace Gasiewicz:
I do not recall seeing any resistors with a Black first band,,,,apparently there are some , but you never know what colors change over time I would use this calculator from Mouser: https://www.mouser.com/technical-resources/conversion-calculators/resistor-color-code-calculator/ If the values are very low, your ohmeter may not give you a correct value...I do not know what meter you are using..also the "exploded view" indicates a small value wire wound resistor....I would think any inductor (choke) in a power supply would have many more windings. Almost always both wire wound resistors and chokes fail "Open" not shorted. Edit: silver can also be a multiplier |

I tried the calculator and it gave me the same that they should but not what they measure as , also I don't know why one of the resistors start with silver , you might say it's gray but it looks like silver , I'm so confused about should I replace them or not and with what? |
| Wallace Gasiewicz:
Yes, it does look like silver....Confusing |
