All that stuff is either made in Taiwan or China, maybe MSI needs to tighten the QC, although lots of companies have had problems in the last couple years with capacitors not just MSI/Dell.

Not just Abit boards. Microstar, Asus, Gigabyte and PC Chips boards, too.

This was my exact situation.
I went and spent an hour to find the capacitor with my multimeter. I didn't know what a was dealing with, couldn't google about it.
