Hey all,
New here but have a lot of old hardware.
I have a Voodoo 3 3500 TV that was in a box of other cards and it appears one of the ceramic capacitors was broken off. C595 on the back side of the board. I wasn't able to find a capacitor list or anything for this board. If anyone has a 3500 TV and an LCR meter (or other wise knows the value) please let me know!
Thanks

To clarify “broken off”, I mean the remnants of it are still there, so it’s not just empty pads that weren’t used. There is part of the cap still left on each side.

Welcome to VOGONS!

Below is a photograph of the corresponding area of a PAL V3 3500 -> C595 has the same color as C596 (yellow/beige) so I'd guess it has the same value. Hopefully this will help.

kind regards
