Pictures of the seller, symbolic price so there is no loss, but was there a voodoo 2 with no memory on the back of the card? The solder points appear factory-tinned.

I marked the missing capacitors with red. I soldered them. The capacitor in the audio section (smaller) is twisted because I had to solder directly to the grommet - the pads were broken.
