-== ⚠️ What changed ==
-This page previously carried values and a "function" column that could not be traced to Amstrad's parts list. It has been rebuilt from that list. Two points worth noting:
-* '''The CPC664 is not a CPC464 with a disk drive bolted on''', as far as the capacitor complement goes. It has '''no C322 and no C324''' — those are cassette-circuit parts on the [[Amstrad CPC 464|464]] and the 664 has a floppy drive instead. It gains C129, C316 and C317, and it carries five polystyrene capacitors where the 464 has three.
-* '''Amstrad's parts list gives value, circuit reference and part number only.''' It does not state what any capacitor does. Functional descriptions have been removed rather than presented as fact; establishing them means reading the CPC664 CPU circuit diagram in the same manual.
