Good capacitors

[Delicieuxz]

Check www.digikey.ca, or http://ca.mouser.com/. You might find the caps you need cheaper, at one of those.

You could try desoldering those caps from a dead motherboard, they are pretty common. Also, Rubycon is a quite high-quality brand, so, if your desperately repair this motherboard, go for it.

Okay I've been looking on ebay and I found exact replacements for all the capacitors. 15$ gets me enough of all the types to replace every cap on the board. Ill just get Rubycon ones as they come up on ebay a lot.

 

I'm fairly certain that the problem is just the caps and not any external issues, given that this computer came from the time when bad caps were a common problem. 

Do not get capacitors from eBay, they are fake most of the time. Use mouser or digikey.

Okay. Ill look around for reputable vendors.

Nippon Chemicon is the best

Just want to let you know, often when you see caps like that it is not because the cap's are what initially failed, but a different issue that caused them to fail. Those are not simply just old bulged caps, It looks like they went fast. I would bet something else in that power delivery circuit is what failed. That or the power supply you are using took them out.

You can buy other brands, and even higher voltage ones. Just make sure they fit, are the same capacitance and are rated for an equal or higher voltage.

Was just about to say exactly this

Replace the motherboard/computer, it isn't worth fixing. 

no,

fix it, it's a good way to learn, it's a good way to experiment.

 

just giving up is the lazyest way to get past the problem

 

as others have said, you're good as long as they have the same Capacitance ( and are good quality )

Potentially wasting the $20 the OP is willing to spend on capacitors on a motherboard that isn't worth $20 working. 

Just because you can and it is educational doesn't mean you should. If the OP wanted to learn fix something, he should fix a broken amp or something that is actually worth money.
