How many versions are there of the Konami X-Men boardset?

How do you tell the difference from a 4p/6p boardset? We pulled one locally, have yet to determine if it's fully working or not, but just curious what the deal is on these. I remember something being high-failure on these....guessing it's whatever that big custom black chip is? Looks like there are some capacitors or something built into it? =\
 
the 6 player board will have 4 slots to plug the last four joysticks into, each labeled 3P, 4P, 5P and 6P. The four player should only have 2 more slots, 3P and 4P. The first two players are handled with the jamma connection.

What goes bad on the boards, and what you must check asap are the small caps on the large black chip. They eventually leak and can permanently damage the board. When they leak the sound fades and eventually disappears.

My boards sound were all fading and the caps were obviously bad. I got mine cleaned and rewired by a gentleman in Canada.
