asus 3060ti dual mini detached smd electrolytic capacitor. how do i fix it.

Story: so i was holding my gpu trying to remove the fan enclosure which broke btw.. i manage to hit a SMD ELECTROLYTIC CAPACTOR and got detached. so my friend volunteered to re solder it. when i came back the soldering job looked like this and i decided never to put it back to the system.  will it still work after replacing the smd capacitor and can you help me find one.

Can't really tell from the photo but technically it should work if it's soldered well. I'm assuming he did it like this because the "legs" of the caps were too short to solder it directly back on the board. IMO, you should find and order this cap online and re-solder it back properly if you can afford being without the card for few days. Or give it to someone for repair, shouldn't be an expensive repair. Caps don't cost that much, you will likely pay more for shipping.
