Are you taking about the little cuts in the top? Those are so the resistors can expand a little before they just blow the fuck up from the pressure. Plus, easier to identify leakage.
What the fuck are you doing poking around in something you don't even know the basics about?

Those are clearly CMOS batteries you retard.

Those are electrolytic marketed as solid.

They don't do anything. Just capitalist pig lies to drive up price.

i love this board

capacitor plague

Industrial espionage was implicated in the capacitor plague, in connection with the theft of an electrolyte formula. A materials scientist working for Rubycon in Japan left the company, taking the secret water-based electrolyte formula for Rubycon's ZA and ZL series capacitors, and began working for a Chinese company. The scientist then developed a copy of this electrolyte. Then, some staff members who defected from the Chinese company copied an incomplete version of the formula and began to market it to many of the aluminium electrolytic manufacturers in Taiwan, undercutting the prices of the Japanese manufacturers. This incomplete electrolyte lacked important proprietary ingredients which were essential to the long-term stability of the capacitors and was unstable when packaged in a finished aluminum capacitor. This faulty electrolyte allowed the unimpeded formation of hydroxide and produced hydrogen gas.
