Hey all, I am in the process of putting together a "vintage" Pentium III system and picked up a QDI socket 370 motherboard.
The individual I bought it from said it's in excellent working condition, but since I'm still in the process of collecting some necessary parts, I haven't had a chance to try to get it to post yet.
I noticed that some of the caps around the socket appear to be either leaking or maybe just dirty (they're near where the heatsink/fan is) but I can't tell for certain. The caps are not bulging whatsoever and are as flat as could possibly be. I attached a couple pics and was wondering if anyone can help me determine if the caps might be problematic or if this is likely just grime that built up over the years.
Thanks!
