Are there are visible signs of capacitor leakage and/or bulging ? Capacitors that look OK might still be bad, but if they look bad, they are.

Also, the brand and series of the capacitors can provide hints, even in the absence of visual failures.

I can see a spec of dust or something across the legs of the cache chip. Maybe clean up the area with some alcohol and try again. You can also try cooling the chip to see if the problem goes away (if it wouldn't be the first issue)
