Hi everyone,

I just got my hands on AWE64 Gold CT4540, but it's missing couple of capacitors. Without them, I can't test the card if it's working or not. I am sure somebody here owns this card. Could you, please, look at the card and tell me what capacity and voltage these have?

C33, C58, C119 and C122. I've also attached photos.

Cheers

Capacitance is 10µF or higher (higher is better), voltage is 16V or higher.

I own this card, so here are the cap values:

C33 - 4.7uf 50V
C58 - 1uf 50V
C119 - 4.7uf 50V
C122 - 4.7uf 50V

Site update: cwcyrix.duckdns.org -> cwcyrix.nsupdate.info due to the former no longer working.

At that size that are signal coupling capacitors. Anything that small cannot help with power supply noise filtering, which is routinely done with solid state capacitors.

It looks like there's solt of what looks like moisture damage on the board, this will have to be thoroughly cleaned off. it also is most likely under some of the chips too and will have to be cleaned off there aswell.
