The caps I plan to just desolder and measure. I don't know how to do that properly in circuit. to get it into the circuit (there were 2 I could check) you would find what point on the board its connected to and place the probes there. for instance for r206 it's connected to the open solder pad right to the left of it, so you can measure it there and on the right side of it, it hits the lower solder pad. Not all are going to be able to measured like that as the board is layered making it exponentially harder to find whats connected to what.

To clarify this is not my specialty, and my knowledge isn't the greatest. the guy who brought it to me brought it as a last ditch effort as no one else would touch it, and its unusable anyway. (I'm also doing this pro bono). Most of my work similar to this is classic console modding/repair with schematics or really well done instructions.

Thanks for this information. I just found that out myself. Also there is no proof of concept on any of these vulnerabilities. I work in the industry myself, so I'm sad to say I hopped on the believe the media train as I had seen the information from normally reputable sources. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this.
 
I have a ryzen 1800x myself and I love it, I hope Red Team keeps kicking ass and the 2k line puts them out infront in the CPU market.

This is absolutely a huge smear campaign. Doesn't mean the vulns don't exist, but the extreme lack of notice screams some competitor is nervous and most likely helped push these guys to release early. As someone who does this for a living, it is ABSOLUTELY unprofessional to do what these guys have done. It would get your average analyst blacklisted hard.
