I bought a cap kit from Console5 and it came with 4x 0.47uF caps I believe instead of 4x 4.7uF caps for locations:
C670
C671
C674
C675

is this a mistake in the cap kit? or is there a reason to use 0.47uF instead? it's a big difference.  Every cap list I have found says 4.7uF

and btw, You guys that work on these boards all the time are hard core lol this is a not an easy task.  The surface mounted caps are not easy to remove!

All sorted now, I ended up finding some 4.7uF caps and used those instead of what came in the cap kit.  All is working well

Had the same issue with the cap kits I ordered from console5, seems that they had a batch like this,contacted them when I found out so future kits don't have this problem.
