I suppose you are going to keep the processor?

If so, you need to get a motherboard that supports Socket 478 processors.

A list of motherboards that support Socket 478:

Google the motherboard brand name + model number to read reviews and see if it supports AGP. Most motherboards don't have AGP slots now. IDE slots are still available.

Me go watch TV... come back later

What is the problem you are facing?

How do you know it is the motherboard capacitor problem?

If you are mistaken, you can change motherboard but still end up with the same issues.
