i7 4770k missing components

Hello, I have an Intel i7 4770k with two missing surface mount components on the underside. As the CPU still successfully boots and appears to function without error, I believe these to be decoupling capacitors.

I have included a picture of my CPU and a picture of a 4770k with the missing components highlighted.

I would appreciate it if someone could let me know the values of these two components so I can repair my CPU.

Thanks in advance.

I see the difference between your processor picture and the other one. I see a difference of two missing capacitors.

If the processor is still under warranty please get in touch with our Warranty Department so they can help you checking the warranty on the unit: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/contactsupport http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/contactsupport

Thanks

I was under the impression that physical damage would void the warranty. I am prepared to, and have the required soldering skills to replace the components. Would you be able to let me know the value of the components or put me in touch with someone who can (I believe them to be decoupling capacitors).

 

Thanks
