Trying to understand Capacitors

I'm trying to understand something about capacitors. I can appreciate the voltage rating, that the higher the voltage the better the tolerance of a higher voltage supply. What I don't get is the capacity. Why when we're changing the capacitors, the capacity rating has to be the same or at least very very close for things to work well? Does the amps go up or something when you discharging higher capacities?

System: Intel Core i3 3240 @ 3.4GHz, EVGA GTX 960 SSC 2GB ACX 2.0, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 Kingston HyperX RAM, ASRock B75M-DGS R2.0 Motherboard, Corsair CX430 W Power Supply
