  1. The focus isn't quite perfect, but I can't do too much better with an $8 microscope and only two arms.
  2. Another i7-4930MX owner here, also lost a cap when cleaning thermal paste off. I haven't booted yet, but I'm glad to hear my initial suspicion (that it was just an extra filtering cap) might be right. I hate these tiny SMD components, I can't even figure out where it went! Looking at it under the microscope, it *almost* looks like it's a bad solder joint? Could the ArctiClean have *dissolved* the cap? Lemme see if I can post the microscope pics. I'm having trouble uploading the pics due to the size restrictions, so I'll only upload one of the microscope pics.
