I have some motherboards with a bunch of faulty caps....and they're all the same culprit:

Evercon
125 degrees C
E67A

Now I'm not a capacitor expert. Nowhere printed is the capacitance rating. Google searching was mostly fruitless EXCEPT one lone forum post suggesting this might be a 1000uF 25v capacitor. Even so, most that I find on ebay with that capacitance rating are rated at 105 degrees C and this one is 125. What exactly should I be replacing this one with?

Are you sure there's no rating? Is it also absent on the other side of the cap?

Replace with panasonic or rubycon 1500uf @ 6.3v 105 C, probably it's 3.5mm lead spacing. Get the low ESR ones.

If you live in USA you can get them from mouser for around $10 for 15.
