Can you solder?

Unlikely that it's anything other than a decoupling capacitor, although I guess it could theoretically be for configuration.
Put it back together and try it. Chances are it works fine.

Ive done this a few times and never had any issues LOL

Last time i solder on electrical stuff was in highschool.

Ok i'll report back in an hour if the thread is still up. Replacing the psu and a new cpu cooler.

Are those caps in parallel? I would guess it's just supply decoupling stuff, might be perfectly fine without it. Give it a try, it won't break anything.

hory shiet

Yes they are

Just solder it back in? some leaded solder will do the job.

He's probably lost it now. Those caps are about 1mm in length.

Most of them are for decoupling and some are even redundant. Put the CPU back and run her, she'll be fine.
If you have any problems, buy a 0.1uF capacitor, they look like 0805 packages, or get one from a tech savvy friend, from R&D at work or whatever, they're literally Cent parts. Just solder one back on, they don't have polarity.

>Must had rubbed it off
fucking how

Okay, happy to know its something that can be simply fixed .Thanks

Dried thermal paste caught betweem them. Being OCD I got carried away at cleaning.

Like how i am now taking my time cleaning every component.

Soak with alcohol if you're gonna try hard to clean up.
