Hi all, I have a RasterOps 8XL NuBus graphics card and it's missing a tantalum capacitor from location C50 (see pictures).

Every other tant cap of the same size on the board is 10µf 16V, so my guess is the missing one is the same, but I'd like to be certain. If anyone else has one of these cards, would you mind checking the markings on C50? I'd really appreciate it.

As far as graphics cards go, this one is isn't much to write home about, but I still want it in working condition.

Are the caps at C2, C10, C31 etc. the same? If so C50 is likely one of those as well. The best photo I could find of the card is here, and though the markings aren't legible, they overall look the same.
Thanks Colin,

Yes, every other tant cap of the same physical size on the card is a 10µf 16V, so my guess is the missing one is the same, but I just wanted to be certain.
