Dailytech claims that all four boards mentioned have solid capacitors:

However, i have read elsewhere that only the boards with a "D" prefix have the solid capacitors, and the mATX board does not have a "D" as a prefix.

what is the truth?

I would like a mATX board with solid capacitors, but i suspect Dailytech is wrong. :(

In the words of Ed McMahon: "You are correct sir!".

Notice that unlike the "D" models, the GA-965GM-S2 sports a number of capacitors with plastic shrink-wrap insulation (akin to AA batteries) which I reckon is telltale of the liquid variety.
