    they feature something I've never seen before: capacitors covered by these plastic domes. at first I thought they were current sensing transformers, but nope, they're definitely capacitors - the silkscreen markings have C-prefixed refdes and they have polarity markings.

    I'm fairly sure this is for thermal isolation, since they're right up against two heatsinks that'll be getting mighty toasty.
