it's a capacitor, and it was there for a reason. Without it I think your board will fail within a few weeks. I've got replacements of them if you need one or two.

nope not what I assume, what I know. I do repairs and ram upgrades for motherboards so I know them quite well. Some part of the MCPX is not recieving power or a signal from the tsop due to this lost/broken capacitor. The parts are cheap, as long as you are in the US (I can send you 2 for like $6 that way you have a spare incase you screw up the first one) or I can selll you a kit like xboxbreakers has which includes LPC resistors (the most common knocked off smt component) and some other often knocked off smt components (for like $16).

Shape doesn't matter. They use the small rectangle ones on the mobo to save space.

That's like WAY off. uF and nF are several factors of 10 from each other. (Fucking metric system and it's base 10 bullshit) Anyway, you're gonna want the right valued one.

Better than the imperial and it's base nothing bullshit.

Back on topic, That is not the right capacitator (don't try it to find out:D), return it and tell them they sold you the wrong one.
