I found that one of my retro PCs motherboards developed bad caps. It's a rather unusual 440BX board as it's socket 370 and not slot 1. The caps are 1500uF 6.3V and there's quite a few of them around the CPU socket.

Would you recap this or not?

Definitely, if it's one of your keepers. I've recapped all of mine.
