    Need help with figuring out a capacitor on Quadro 5000M from Dell M6500

    I have a rear video card Nvidia Quadro 5000M, but I broke a small SMD 0402 capacitor on the front side of the card. It's the 2nd capacitor just down the U1 inscription in the left bottom corner of the card. Would anyone having this card please help me measure the capacitance of it? It would require a bit of soldering.
    To those interested in this card: I'm working on replicating it, so you might become interested in buying it from me after I finish. I'm also planning on changing its shape to fit some other laptops.

    The same capacitor can also be found on GTX 580M, it is attached to the pin 7 of the same MP86963 on the DRAM power rail. The capacitance is 1nF as I suspected it to be. Interestingly, the same chips are also used on the GPU power phases, but no capacitors are used there.
